If you are running SAS Windows 8.x and have SAS/Access for PC Formats then you can use Proc Import to read Excel 97/2000 files. Unfortunately for me, my company strangely decided not to renew my license for SAS/Access for PC Formats. Now I have to use DDE or import CSV files.

In SAS Version 6.12 one could NOT use PROC ACCESS to read Excel Windows 97 and Windows 2000 files. Is this still true in Versopn 8.1? I don't want to use the Import/Export Facility but I want to use my SAS program to read and convert the EXCEL 2000 files to a SAS dataset. Does anybody know what the best way to accomplish this in a SAS program is, and can you give me an example?

Thank you!
