Ok,
I need some help. I need to import this dataset to a SAS dataset and I want to use as few a lines of code as possible. I would rather not write a data step to read it it. Can i use PROC IMPORT?

Who can do it?
Thanks-Ken
filename csvFile url "https://research.stlouisfed.org/econ/mccracken/fred-databases/monthly/current.csv" termstr=crlf;
proc import datafile=csvFile out=foo replace dbms=csv; run;
Use PROC HTTP:
/* Set destination fileref */
filename csvFile "&sasforum.\datasets\current.csv";
/* Get file */
proc http method="get" out=csvFile url="https://research.stlouisfed.org/econ/mccracken/fred-databases/monthly/current.csv";
run;
filename csvFile;
Works for me.
