Even though this is an old post, it's labeled as not being answered. I thought I'd reply because it came up on an internet search.

data _null_ ;
     set sds.filename ;
     FILE  'u:\rawfile.txt' DLM='|' ;
     PUT  var5 var2 var3 var1 var4 ;
run ;

try this....

filename test "c:\test_file.txt";

data _null_;

set your_sas_dataset;

file test dlm="|";

put var1 var2 var3 var10;

run;
