Is there a way to open an excel or csv file in SAS Studio (the same way that Word Documents and PDF documents open externally) rather than importing it?  If I right click on a csv or xlsx, the open option is greyed out.  If I right click on a word or pdf document, I can open them - which then allow me to view them locally using word/reader. I would like that same functionality for excel.

Download the file to your PC and then open it.
