I want to extract data in the fourth column (i.e. 24,698.48 to 23,827.95).

I tried to use dlm=" " to specific only Blank will be the delimiter, but I guess there is a comma between the number so that the program stop running. Can anyone help me to do this?

Informats are your friend:

data test10 (keep=hsi);
  infile datalines dlm=" ";
  informat a yymmdd10.
           b c hsi e comma9.;
  input a b c hsi e;
  format hsi comma8.2;
datalines;
