I am attempting to export my regression results to an excel file. I
have used the following code I obtained from the SAS site:

ods tagsets.excelxp file="Excelxp.xls";
proc reg data = final.regression_trades;
model result = return_cost holdtime_mins;
run;
quit;

ods tagsets.excelxp close;

I have also tried:

ODS TAGSETS.EXCELXP
file='C:\regression.xls';

ods tagsets.excelxp file="Excelxp.xls";
proc reg data = final.regression_trades;
model result = return_cost holdtime_mins;
run;
quit;

ods tagsets.excelxp close;

I can view the regression results in SAS but I get an error when
opening the excel file. Excel states the errors arise due to the
style and table.

Do you get what you want if you use:?

ods tagsets.msoffice2k file="Excelxp.xls";
proc reg data = final.regression_trades;
model result = return_cost holdtime_mins;
run;
quit;

ods tagsets.excelxp close;

Slight correction:

ods tagsets.msoffice2k file="Excelxp.xls";
proc reg data = final.regression_trades;
model result = return_cost holdtime_mins;
run;
quit;

ods tagsets.msoffice2k close;

I just tried this using my own data source (since I don't have access
to YOUR data), and had no problems opening the XLS-readable file
generated by the ExcelXP tagset with the results created by PROC REG.

Here are some suggestions:

1) make sure you are using Excel tagset version 1.86 or higher (there
is a note in the SAS log that tells you which tagset version is being
used).

2) Just to be careful, are you using SAS 9.1 or higher?

3) The Excel XP tagset uses the default ODS style template, well, by
default. Your code does not indicate you are trying to use any other
style template, but that should not matter, as the tagset is set up to
use any ODS style.

Can you reply back with the text of the message you are receiving from
Excel?

Art's version worked perfectly.

Andrew, I am using SAS 9.2 (on this computer - I was using another
computer yesterday also with 9.2).

On this computer I checked he tagset and I am using: (SAS 9.1.3,
v1.75, 07/26/07). I did not get the error I received yesterday on the
other computer but the original code I posted will not work on this
system either. I will obtain the new tagset.

I am currently on my desktop at work and my laptop has SAS installed
(and that was the one that gave me the error message). I will post a
screenshot of the error when I get home tonight.

FYI I did see another post in this forum that states that the export
to Excel will not work in windows x64 platforms. I have 64 bit Vista
on this computer and XP Professional on the laptop.
