Hi, guys
I need help in reading external file.

How to read external text -file with multiple rows to one observation with one column?

Hold the read point over with @@, for instance this gives some examples:

You would need to write the logic as to when to write out the dataset line.

Please supply an example of the text file, and how it should end up in the dataset.

Hi,

As per your query i think double trailing '@@' should solve your issue.

If you could elaborate your query with a small instance that would be appreciated.

Thanks,
