Problem Note 11798: Memory leak accessing Excel data using OLE Automation
If you access Excel data from SAS Component Language (SCL) using OLE
Automation and the SASHELP.FSP.HAUTO class, your computer's memory usage
may increase. This is due to some internal lists not being freed until
the class is terminated.
This will most likely happen if you use the _compute method in the HAUTO
class to call the Range or the Cell method on an Excel Worksheet object.
A Technical Support hot fix for Release 8.2 (TS2M0) for this
issue is available at:
