Overview

This stored process sample attaches an Excel file (XLS) for downloading when you run the sample code from a stored process Web application or portal. The sample also provides code for downloading PDF and CSV files.

Code Sample Details

• Created: May 2008
• Version: This sample was developed using SAS^® 9.1.3 and SAS^® Enterprise Guide^® 4.1.

If you have the Stored process macros option checked when you create this sample in SAS Enterprise Guide, you might receive incorrect results. Since _WEBOUT is used in this example, it does not contain the %STPBEGIN and %STPEND macros. Because SAS Enterprise Guide does not detect these macros in the code, it will continue to prompt you.

As shown in the following display, make sure that you DO NOT have Stored process macros checked when you create this sample in SAS Enterprise Guide.

If the application prompts ask if you want to enable stored process macros, click No.
