Hi,
the proc below exports the DS starting from the first observation, what's wrong with the firstobs=1 option?
Thank you
proc export data= xxx (firstobs=2)
outfile=C:\yyy
dbms=dlm;
delimiter=" ";
run;

What's wrong with the firstobs=2 option?
The code works fine for me, assuming you want to skip the first row of your dataset?
Hi smygarn,
yes I'd skip the first row.
I don't understand why it doesn't work. This is my alternative:
data _null_;
file 'C:\yyy' delimiter=' ' DSD DROPOVER lrecl=32767;
set xxx;
format var1 $13. ;
format var2 $3. ;
do;
put var1 $ @;
put var2 $ ;
;
end;
run;
What are you trying to accomplish? Are you just trying NOT to include the variable names? If so, use the option putnames=no. Take a look at: http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/acpcref/63184/HTML/default/viewer.htm#a003103525.htm
