I wish to run SAS code via Excel to allow complex statistical analysis to be performed via SAS without the user observing this (e.g. to provide forecasts). Are there any tools available to enable this?

RE: Excel VBA

Hi Stephen, thanks for your query. There appears to be an add-in to enable a degree of Excel/SAS integration as outlined here:

http://www.slideshare.net/sunznz/sas-add-in-for-microsoft-office-beginners

The add-in doesn't appear to be freely available on the net which makes me think you have to buy it from SAS itself. Here's an outline of their online documentation:

http://support.sas.com/documentation/onlinedoc/addin/

They also seem to want users to deploy various bespoke business intelligence tools which seems a bit full on. Have a nose around their site, although be warned I'd be surprised if there isn't a cost involved in downloading the add-in.

Hope this helps,

Anthony

Excel tip:

Cycling through Absoulte cell references

If you are working with formulas in excel and need to convert your formula to an absolute formula, instead on manually adding in the $dollar signs you can highlight the specific part of your formula and press the F4 key.

You can cycle through all the absolute options by pressing the button (up to four times)
