Hello, I have a folder of 14 text delimited files that I need to import into SAS. Is it possible to import them all in at the same time rather than one at a time and is there any sample code and macro that anyone could recommend? Is there possibly a way to loop through each file from 1 to 14 and pull all 14 of the files in simultaneously? ... View more

Is it possible to get just the single column average of a dataset output into a separate variable without using Proc Means?. I need to obtain the average of the OBP column in the attached spreadsheet( see Column G highlighted with an average of 0.337829493 in cell Q10) and then append it to the end of that same dataset. It can be done in Excel successfully but when I average it in SAS, I get the average for each individual player in the data set and just need that one combined OBP average of 0.337829493  as a variable to append it to the original data set. My code is listed below. Also what would be best to use to append it, Would I just use PROC APPEND?  Thanks in advance for any help with this       PROC IMPORT DBMS=xlsx OUT=more_rate replace DATAFILE="/folders/myfolders/sasuser.v94/baseball_more_rate.xlsx"; GETNAMES=YES; RUN; data more_avg2; set work.more_rate; TotalOBP=sum(OBP); AverageOBP=TotalOBP/217; drop TotalOBP; run;       PROC IMPORT DBMS=xlsx OUT=more_rate replace DATAFILE="/folders/myfolders/sasuser.v94/baseball_more_rate.xlsx"; GETNAMES=YES; RUN; data more_avg2; set work.more_rate; TotalOBP=sum(OBP); AverageOBP=TotalOBP/217; drop TotalOBP; run; PROC IMPORT DBMS=xlsx OUT=more_rate replace DATAFILE="/folders/myfolders/sasuser.v94/baseball_more_rate.xlsx"; GETNAMES=YES; RUN; data more_avg2; set work.more_rate; TotalOBP=sum(OBP); AverageOBP=TotalOBP/217; drop TotalOBP; run;   PROC IMPORT DBMS=xlsx OUT=more_rate replace DATAFILE="/folders/myfolders/sasuser.v94/baseball_more_rate.xlsx"; GETNAMES=YES; RUN; data more_avg2; set work.more_rate; TotalOBP=sum(OBP); AverageOBP=TotalOBP/217; drop TotalOBP; run;   ...
