Hello R_Win;

This is a solution:
[pre]
data l;
input id;
cards;
45
63
1023
run;
data _null_;
set l end=l;
if l then call symputx ('id',id);
run;
data r;
set l;
new_id=&id;
run;
[/pre]
Sincerely,

just for clarification....

set l end=l;

That's the letter L...not the number 1. Sometimes confusing in certain fonts.
