Does anyone could tell me how to copy and paste a paragraph that concludes characters and numbers into code area? This is the requirements: Include just the log notes from the DATA step execution that results in 8618 observations in the HW Report by using copy-paste. 

How could I copy this into my code area and let it show in results?

Highlight text, press cntrl + c

Goto to where to paste and cntrl + p

 

Describe your problem clearly with examples if you want further guidance.

Since you do not read from datalines, your problem has nothing to do with copy/paste. Your code does somehow not match the data in the input file. Show the whole step you used for reading the external file.

No, you need to show exactly what you are doing, post example test data in the post window (don't attach files) show your code etc.  I am unable to guess what you are doing as it now appears your readin in a file so what on earth does this have to do with copy + paste?
