That's a very brief problem description. So here is my very brief answer.
data want;
n=1000;
do i=1 to n;
y=rand('normal');
output;
end;
run;
If that's not what you are looking for, describe your problem in detail.

@ALEXMANI I see you've posted several topics about Monte Carlo simulation.
This paper by @JBrinkley provides a good intro to the topic and might help:

And @Rick_SAS has a comprehensive series about simulation on his blog -- great reference.
