why three observations disappear?

data recovery;

/*the following picture is my data set, the 38-41 rows disappear after running the code above?
why?

What does the SAS log say?

Why do you post photographs of text?  Isn't it harder to to create and post the photos than it would be to just copy the actual text and paste it?

Not sure of the reason why they are missing, however you may try the option TRUNCOVER and run the code

data recovery;
infile 'C:\Users\liaodong\Documents\My SAS Files\9.4\bio\project\recovery.txt' dlm='09'x firstobs=2 TRUNCOVER;
input ID treatment age duration score1 score2 score3 score4;
run;
title 1 row;
proc print data = recovery ;
run;

Thank you .

Attach the file to your next post, and post the log from the step using the </> button.

For the future: do NOT post data in pictures. Copy/paste text data into a window opened with the </> button; post SAS datasets as data steps with datalines. Use the "little running man" for code.
