Reading input

[Siddharth123]

Hi ,

I am using code:

data test;

infile datalines missover dsd;    

input a : 1. @

   b : $200.;

datalines;

0 I am going to college

1 I am interested in SAS

2 I am looking for more statistics

3 I want to see good results

;

proc print;run;

But this doesnt read the values correctly. The values are seperated by dlm = ' ' so I have used dsd option. I have used missiver to read any blank values as blanks. Please advise.
