Problem Note 46982: A second attempt to export data from SAS® Web Report Studio to Microsoft Excel might fail
After exporting data from a table or graph in SAS Web Report Studio, subsequent attempts to export might cause the following content to appear in the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

This problem is most likely to occur under the following conditions:
- You have the SAS® Add-In for Microsoft Office installed.
- You are running Microsoft Office 2003 or 2007.
- You choose to open the data immediately instead of saving it to a file.
As a workaround, save the file before opening it. This issue has not been reported with Office 2010.
