I have a user who has been running a SAS program that uses PROC EXPORT to convert a SAS dataset to .XLSB. Because her SAS version is 64-bit SAS 9.4 and her Office version WAS 32-bit Office 2013, she had to use the 32-bit PC File Server to export the file by using the appropriate DBMS option. This program has worked fine for many years. This week, our ITS has "upgraded" her Office 2013 to Office 365, and suddenly the program does not work. The Excel version in Office 365 is apparently still 32-bit, since the Account page from the File Tab does not say that it is 64-bit. It should NOT be necessary for her to use 64-bit Excel (almost nobody in the world DOES use 64-bit Excel, and Microsoft admits openly that almost nobody needs to.)

Is SAS PC File Server compatible with Office 365?
