import .txt file with the first line as title and descritpions

[leehsin]

Thank you, ChrisNZ !
If I had a extra line below the last line as a tail and I wanted to exclude it (different .txt files have different amount of the rows, so that we can't identify and use the row number to locate the tail for all .txt files), what will the code look like?

[Kurt_Bremser]

In the INFILE statement, use the end= option to define a flag variable; use this flag variable to not output the last line:

data _null_;
infile '/home/fkhurshed/Demo1/demo.txt.sas' end=done;
file "&work_path./temp.txt";
input ;
if _n_ < 4 or done then delete;
else put _infile_;
run;

Since you opted to using proc import, you don't have many ways to customise the way you read the file.

Your last row will have to be deleted manually, if proc import includes it.

data WANT;

  set WANT end=LASTOBS;

  if LASTOBS then delete;

 run;

When using the infile statement, there are many options, such as the one showed by @Kurt_Bremser .

It can be accomplished now with my task of importing .TXT files with head lines and tail lines.

Thanks for everyone's help!
