Hello, 

 

I am new to SAS and this is my first time posting. I am having issues removing line breaks when importing a CSV to SAS. I have tried using TERMSTR=CRLF, I have also tried using TRANWRD and TRANSLATE without any success.

 

 

The code below is what I am using for the import and I have attached a screenshot of the export with the line break once the data has been manipulated.

 

DATA WORK.ACC ;
%LET _EFIERR_ = 0;
INFILE CSV DELIMITER = ',' MISSOVER DSD FIRSTOBS=2 ;

INFORMAT Customer_Number $10.;
INFORMAT Account_Name $50.;
INFORMAT Billing_Street $50.;
INFORMAT Billing_City $50.;
INFORMAT Billing_State_Province $2.;
INFORMAT Billing_Zip_Postal_Code $7.;
INFORMAT Amount_Outstanding DOLLAR11.2;
INFORMAT Account_Status $20.;
INFORMAT Debts DOLLAR11.2;
INFORMAT Shipping_Street $50.;
INFORMAT Shipping_City $50.;
INFORMAT Shipping_State_Province $2.;
INFORMAT Shipping_Zip_Postal_Code $7.;
INFORMAT Phone $14.;
INFORMAT Mobile_Phone $14.;
INFORMAT Fax $14.;

FORMAT Customer_Number $10.;
FORMAT Account_Name $50.;
FORMAT Billing_Street $50.;
FORMAT Billing_City $50.;
FORMAT Billing_State_Province $2.;
