A SAS/AF Application to Transfer Data Between SAS and XLS/CSV/XML Files

Overview Transferring data between SAS and other data types, such as Microsoft Excel (XLS), Comma Separated Value (CSV), and eXtensible Markup Language (XML), could be difficult. Although SAS software provides data transfer features between SAS and XLS/CSV in "Import Data" and "Export Data", it lacks the capability to transfer multiple files or multi-sheet excel files in one transfer. Meanwhile, SAS software takes at least 4 steps on the screen to transfer a single file. As the consequence, a SAS/AF file transfer application is developed in SAS version 9.1 on Windows platform for all levels of SAS users as an alternative to other means of transferring between SAS and other different data types, i.e. XLS/CSV/XML, with many advantages.
