Problem Note 51580: The XLSX engine is enhanced to write multiple sheets per Microsoft Excel file in the first maintenance release of SAS® 9.3 (TS1M1)

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

In SAS 9.3 (TS1M0), the XLSX engine supports writing only one sheet in an Excel workbook. You can work around this by setting DBMS=EXCEL or DBMS=EXCELCS in your code. This will generate more than one sheet

In the SAS 9.3 TS1M1 maintenance release, the XLSX engine capability has been enhanced to write multiple sheets per Excel file. This enhancement is available via the hot fix. Click the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue.

After you apply the hot fix, the XLSX engine will support multiple sheets per file, as shown in the following code:

proc export data=sashelp.class outfile='c:\sastest\myfile.xlsx' dbms=xlsx; sheet=class; run; proc export data=sashelp.shoes outfile='c:\sastest\myfile.xlsx' dbms=xlsx; sheet=shoes; run;
