I have changed this document as a word document is there any way to
tell SAS to pick up various fields like I said in the above exampe I
want to tell theSAS to look for various  fields and do something  like
this

proc format ;

value (pick up the SAS Format value )
code  = "Label "
run;

Is this possible to do something like this , why I am trying to do
something like this is that,  there is document given to me by a client
which has format values like the above for a study which is in the PDF
document (running more than 300 pages ) , Just to make my life easier I
saved it as word document and try to cut and paste it but even that is
taking for ever so  curious to find out is there a way in SAS or VB to
tell it read particular  way i want to do .
I am using SAS 8
Any Ideas thanks for the help and time .
