Hi Chevell,

How does SAS allocate memory when using ODS EXCEL and PROC REPORT? I have a job with ~20K observations. I can run the job on two different SAS installations with the same MEMSIZE setting and other memory group options. On one server, the job will run out of memory and on the other server, the job will complete.

Additionally, what PROC REPORT options or statements impact memory usage? I am looking to refine the PROC REPORT step to minimize the memory use.

Thanks,
Scott
