sample data

is there a way to see sample data from a large sas data set?

This data set has 100 + columns and millions of records . Double clicking the dataset freezes. firstobs = 1 obs=50 didnot work.

any other suggestions?

Please advise.

"firstobs = 1 obs=50 didnot work" how? Please share relevant code and logs. At the mean time, Proc SQL has the similar options:

Proc sql inobs=50;

select * from have;quit;
