The LIBNAME Engines

Software Requirements

On Windows, SAS/ACCESS Interface to PC Files supports a LIBNAME engine for Microsoft Access database files and a LIBNAME engine for Excel workbook files. These two engines share most of code that calls OLE DB APIs internally. They require that you have installed Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) and Microsoft Jet (Joint Engine Technology) or Microsoft Ace (for 2007 and above) provider software. By default, SAS software installs and checks the required Microsoft software.
