Please help me in importing excel file using infile statement. How can i import gold.xls platinum.xls and titanium.xls separately.
Hi . Why are you trying to read an Excel file via a data step?
The Data step is good for importing txt and csv files, not excel.
I would use proc import.

You CANNOT import an Excel file through the infile method. This method is for reading text files, which Excel files are not.
If you want to read data from Excel in a data step with infile, you need to export your Excel spreadsheet to a text-based file format like csv.
