DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

When you double-click values in a pivot table in Microsoft Excel with SAS Add-In for Microsoft Office installed, a Credentials Required pop-up message might appear.

This problem occurs only when you have not selected the Save login in profile option in your SAS®9 Metadata Profile, as shown below:

  1. Microsoft Excel ► SAS ► Tools ► Connections ► Edit your profile and clear the Save login in Profile check box.
  2. Create a pivot table and double-click any value.

Note: The Credentials Required pop-up message appears even if you did not perform any actions related to any SAS components.
