Iam using a proc export step to replace a sheet in my spreedsheet with new data.
PROC EXPORT data = work.filtro_segmentos2
outfile = "myfolder/BASE_DIAG.done.xlsx"
dbms = EXCELCS replace;
sheet = "ANALÍTICO";
SERVER = "&IP_ADDRESS.";
PORT = &PORTA.;
RUN;
but this error keeps happening:
ERROR: CLI execute error: [Microsoft][Driver ODBC Excel] Cannot delete worksheet cells.
WARNING: Table _IMEX_."ANALÍTICO$" has not been dropped.
ERROR: There was a problem removing the original table ANALÍTICO. See Log for details.
I've done some research in SaS documentation and find this solution, but I dont know how to adapt to my needs(replace a whole sheet). A little experience as help would be great!
The first example sends data from a SAS session to an Excel spreadsheet. The target cells are rows 1 through 100 and columns 1 through 3. To send the data, submit the following program:
/* The DDE link is established using */
/* Microsoft Excel SHEET1, rows 1 */
/* through 100 and columns 1 through 3 */
filename random dde
'excel|sheet1!r1c1:r100c3';
data random;
file random;
do i=1 to 100;
x=ranuni(i);
y=10+x;
z=x-10;
put x y z;
end;
run;

I had set up a code in PC SAS in my Windows 7 having Excel 2010 and PC SAS 9.4. Basically what the code did was take the dataset 'wide2' and paste it to the only excel file which is open in the OS at that moment and then save it. Following is the code which I was using:
%macro paste(number);
proc print data=wide2;
run;
PROC CONTENTS DATA=wide2 /*NOPRINT*/ OUT=CNT ;
RUN;
PROC SORT DATA=CNT ;
BY VARNUM ;
RUN;
PROC SQL /*NOPRINT*/;
SELECT NAME
INTO: VARS SEPARATED BY ' '
FROM CNT ;
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT NAME)
INTO: COLS SEPARATED BY ' '
FROM CNT ;
SELECT NOBS
INTO: ROWS
FROM CNT
WHERE VARNUM = 1;
QUIT;
proc print data=cnt;run;
FILENAME TEMP DDE "EXCEL|Sheet&number.!R1C1:R200C200" ;
data _null_ ;
file temp ;
if _n_=1 then do;
do _n_=1 to &cols ;
set cnt(keep=name rename=(name=__name__)) ;
put __name__ #;
end;
put;
end;
set wide2 ;
put &vars ;
run ;
%mend paste;
So when I executed a macro like %paste(1), it would paste the data to Excel's Sheet1.
Now we have moved to Windows 10 which has the same PC SAS version but Excel 2016.
When I run the same code with the same dataset, the PC SAS gets hung for an eternity after a couple of seconds and then I have to just kill the process. Nothing happens to the open excel file. I can't even see the log since the PC SAS gets hung. Please suggest a solution for this.( The top bar of the PCSAS when it gets hung says 'running DATA Step')
How many columns and rows in the wide2 data set ? Your posted code ran on my system with SAS 9.4M4 and Office 365. I used this data set.
data wide2;
do id=1 to 3;
array x(15) (1:15);
output;
end;
format _numeric_ 2.;
run;
I am trying to run a Stored Process from the SAS tab in Excel (Reports button). After running it, I get the following message: "Stored Process has completed with no visual content. You can refresh this analysis through the Manage Content dialog box". Below you can see my code:
ods excel;
create table DAI as
select DISTINCT (A.V_NUMBER), B.PHRDEDN_APPLICABLE_GROSS
from UVICRPT.V_HRS_PAYROLL_PHRHIST A, UVICRPT.V_HRS_PAYROLL_PHRDEDN B
WHERE A.PHRHIST_DISP in ('70')
AND A.PHRHIST_PAYNO = &PayNo AND B.PHRDEDN_PAYNO = &PayNo
AND A.PHRHIST_PICT_CODE = "&PictCode" AND B.PHRDEDN_PICT_CODE = "&PictCode"
AND A.PHRHIST_YEAR = B.PHRDEDN_YEAR
AND A.PHRHIST_SEQ_NO = B.PHRDEDN_SEQ_NO;
run;
ods excel options(sheet_interval="table" sheet_name="Koala");
proc print data=DAI style=Table noobs;
run;
ods excel close;
QUIT;
All I want is a new sheet in the book I'm working on named "Koala" with the table displayed.
What am I doing wrong? Any help?
I am quite new to SAS. I have got a file with file extension .sas7bdat which contains daily stocks prices and percentage changes. It has almost 2 million line items. I know that I can simply double click the file and open it with SAS 9.4. But, I am looking for codes which I can type in Editor and open this file. Please help me.
After I open this file, I need to export it to excel. Since it has 2 million data, I can not export everything in a single excel tab. So, What I want to do it randomly pick (say 10,000 or 20,000) data and export only this randomly picked data to excel.
My .sas7bdat file is on desktop.
Please help.
You can use surveyselect and specify the number of records you want in your subset the use proc export.
In my Example below I create a table of 10 rows and only wanted 5 row in the subset. just change the value in my macro variable from 5 to 100000
Code:
data have;
input value;
datalines;
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
;
run;
%let subset=5;
proc surveyselect data=have
method=srs n=&subset. out=want;
run;
Output:
value=1
value=2
value=5
value=6
value=10
Exporting:
proc export data=sashelp.class
outfile='c:\myfiles\want.csv'
dbms=csv
replace;
run;
You can also filter on the data you are exporting, dummy example below:
proc export data=want (where=(value > 100 or location='X'))
outfile='c:\myfiles\want.csv'
dbms=csv
replace;
run;
You can use ODS. This will be simpler, but generate a file which will give warning in opening first time
libname rd_data "<Your Path to dataset>"
data temp;
set rd_data.<dataset name>;
rnd = ranuni(123456);
run;
proc sort data = temp out = temp(drop=rnd);
by rnd;
run;
**** Remember this is .xls file, not .xlsx
ods html file = <xls file path - full path>;
proc print data = temp(obs=1000);
run;
ods html close;
Alternatively, you can use DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange)
First, create a library to point to the location on the file system where the data set resides. This is a pointer (in C terms) to the directory.
libname myData "<path to folder>";
From there you can use a random number and a data step to get N random values. Alternatively, PROC SURVEYSELECT can be used, but you might not have it licensed.
data temp;
set myData.<Data Set Name>;
__rnd = ranuni(1);
run;
proc sort data=temp ;
by __rnd;
run;
data toOutput;
set temp(obs=10000 drop=__rnd);
run;
The last Data Step reads in just the first 10,000 records which you randomized above.
Then you can use PROC EXPORT to export the values.
proc export data=toOutput outfile="c:\temp\output.xlsx" dbms=xlsx replace;
sheet="MyData";
run;
The great thing here is that you can create other sheets in the file with additional exports.
proc export data=toOutput outfile="c:\temp\output.xlsx" dbms=xlsx replace;
sheet="MyData2";
run;
This would allow you to create multiple samples or even export all the data across multiple sheets.
Is there a way to dynamically change the sheet names in SAS ODS using macros? Inside a macro, I have the following code:
%DO N = 1 %TO &SQLOBS;
ODS TAGSETS.ExcelXP
OPTIONS(SHEET_NAME = &&TABLEVAR&N
EMBEDDED_TITLES = 'NO'
EMBEDDED_FOOTNOTES = 'NO'
PRINT_HEADER = 'CURRENT &&TABLEVAR&N AS OF &D';
PROC PRINT
DATA = WORK.&&TABLEVAR&N
NOOBS;
RUN;
%END;
Which basically loops through an array of table names and for each table outputs a separate Excel Sheet. And by calling a macro variable &TABLEVAR, it is supposed to dynamically change the sheet name for each table. However, I get the following error:
ERROR 22-322: Expecting a quoted string.
So SAS does resolve the macro variable, I can see the table names are right in the log, but the problem is they are not a quoted string. So I tried it like this with quotes around it:
OPTIONS(SHEET_NAME = '&&TABLEVAR&N'
But then the macro variable is not being resolved by SAS and all the sheets are named &&TABLEVAR&1, 2, etc.
Is there a way around this? (And each sheet is a separate table with a different name so I can't use a BY group.) What good macros are if they can't interact with ODS?
I just found out placing %sysfunc and quote in front of &&TABLEVAR&N does the trick.
So the final code looks like this:
%DO N = 1 %TO &SQLOBS;
ODS TAGSETS.ExcelXP
OPTIONS(SHEET_NAME = %sysfunc(quote(&&TABLEVAR&N))
EMBEDDED_TITLES = 'NO'
EMBEDDED_FOOTNOTES = 'NO'
PRINT_HEADER = 'CURRENT &&TABLEVAR&N AS OF &D';
PROC PRINT
DATA = WORK.&&TABLEVAR&N
NOOBS;
RUN;
%END;
I don't think you need all that. If you use double quotes around the macro variable expression, you should get the same result as the %SYSFUNC(QUOTE()) function:
"&&TABLEVAR&N"
That is, unless you somehow plan to have double quotes in the sheet names....
I am trying to format a weekly report using DDE in sas which opens a excel file kept on my desktop location. I want to format the font some of these cells. I have a total column which needs to be formatted every time the new data comes in. But every time this data would come out the range of the "Total" cell would be different. Please refer to the code i am writing
options noxsync noxwait;
filename sas2xl dde 'excel|system';
data _null_;
length fid rc start stop time 8;
fid=fopen('sas2xl','s');
if (fid le 0) then do;
rc=system('start excel');
start=datetime();
stop=start+10;
do while (fid le 0);
fid=fopen('sas2xl','s');
time=datetime();
if (time ge stop) then fid=1;
end;
end;
rc=fclose(fid);
run;
data _null_;
file sas2xl;
put '[open(myfilepath\file.xlsx")]';
run;
**I had created a macro using call symput and i am using it here for dynamically changing the row number**

put '[workbook.activate("Sheet1")]';
put '[select("r&&rownum&i..c1")]';
put '[format.font("Arial",true,false,false,false,1,false,false)]';
put '[column.width(0,"c1:c6",false,3)]';
%end;
run;
ERROR
The code is not working and give me a error like this
DDE session not ready. FATAL:

Can you please tell me how can i go ahead in this
