Looking for Ways to Only Read Specific Rows from a CSV File into SAS

shimganar · Posted 03-09-2023 12:47 AM

Hi! Is there a way to read specific rows of a CSV file into SAS or to limit the number of rows being read from a CSV file into SAS? For example, if you had a data set with 1000 rows, but you just wanted to read in the first 800 rows, is there a way to do so? Any input regarding this would be much appreciated. Thanks so much!

The INFILE Statement has OBS= and FIRSTOBS= options to control this.
