All,

I have 10 columns in an audit table and one of this files has 3 pieces of description data that is seperated by semicolons. I need to break out the entire table into 12 columns. Being a very novice SAS EG User I am stuck.

Any help, ideas would be appreciated.

Many thanks

You could use the filter and query task, and there define three new calculated columns, using the scan function (documentation for syntax).
