Help to load data in to a PDB from a file

[Pon1]

Dear All,

I am trying to load data from an external file to a SAS PDB in mainframe. The external CSV file contains  (actually space delimited). The first record is the file headers, and the remaining is the data. Since we have more headers, I would like to know the easiest way to read the header (column name) and its type (Char or Num) and length of the column. Guide me how to create a PDB using the column names in header and it its record format. Then load the PDB.

Thank you,

Regards,

Raj.

Write a data step, according to the description you got with the csv file. In the infile statement, use firstobs=2 to skip the header line.
