SAS Enterprise Guide Tip: Exporting Results and Preserving Historical Versions

[chitturics]

I would expect the latest file with no appended time stamp and old files appended with time stamp so the person who is looking the file with no timestamp is current all the time!! Exporting to Excel, why cant we export three different tables into same Excel file with 3 workbooks in different names?

@chitturics This could be achieved by adding another “export as a step in the project” and in that additional export, keep the default choice to “overwrite existing file”. This added export process would not add the date time stamp.

As for exporting to Excel, this can be accomplished programmatically if SAS Access to PC Files is licensed by using libname methods or Proc Export.
