Hello,   I have a txt file that contains multiple equations which are separated by ";".  Some equations are splited into 2 records because they are very long.  In the example below eq1 and eq3 are not separated but eq2 is:   eq1 = x1*a+ x2*b + x3*c ; eq2 = x1*a + x2*b + x3*c + x4*d ;  eq3 = x1*a + x2*b + x3*c ;    I want to create a dataset with only 1 variable that contains one row for each equations like that :  VAR1 eq1=eq1 = x1*a+ x2*b + x3*c eq2 = x1*a + x2*b +x3*c + x4*d eq3 = x1*a + x2*b + x3*c   The basic code to import is :    data temp; infile "txt_file" dlm=";" ; input var1 :$1000.; run;   I tried many things but nothing works. Every time SAS creates 2 rows for the splitted equations. I know with this exemple you can just add a data step after the import and concatenate the 2 separeted row for the equation 2 but I cannot do that with my real data.   Thank you for your help.     ...
