Subject:      stange problem to import execl file to sas file
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

Hi, there:

I faced some problem when I tried to import excel file to sas file. Please patiently read through the problem and provide your valuabe advice. Thanks in advance.

Suppose I have following excel file 'Myfile'(WITH FOLLOWING FORMAT):

A B C E F G 011999 021999 STACKNO BOOKID STACKNO BOOKID Q2/7 - 297.02 11A01123 Q2/7 - 531.76 12-36GQ14185 Q2/7 - 297.06 11-21AB4321 Q2/7 - 531.05 11FC78091 Q2/7 - 297.54 07BD11111 Q2/7 - 601.63 11-53T55360 Q2/7 - 297.79 14J05610 Q2/7 - 689.08 31GQ06172 Q2/7 - 297.41 11C02775 Q2/7 - 689.10 31-42K97391 Q2/7 - 494.44 21Q10551 Q2/7 - 689.33 11-40LC06648 Q2/7 - 494.52 10-97C31598 Q2/7 - 494.53 11-08BB03317 Q2/7 - 494.08 07-00CL08362 Q2/7 - 494.10 04-98CL01186

Above, A,B,C,E,F,G are the colum title in excel. So in the above file, value '011999' ocupied merged cell a1,b1,c1 and '021999'ocupied merged cell e1,f1,g1; left 'stackno' ocupied merged cell a2,b2, right 'stackno'ocupied merged cell e2,f2. When I used import facilities of SAS 6.12, it failed. Later, I cut the values of Feb, 1999(021999) into another file. Then I tried to import, still failed. So I really hope you all can give your experience and valuable advice. Thanks again.

Jing
