Findu,

Even easier, hit F4 when in the editor to recall the DATA step code, or
use the RUN menu to locate RECALL LAST SUBMIT.  It is already to edit and run.  Just remember to delete the PROC IMPORT.

With the new editor, one forgets the old recall key, but it still works.

Thanks, Howard.
It works like a charm.
