Subject:      Importing a CSV in to SAS
Comments: To: sas-l@uga.edu
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

I want to import a csv file with very large strings of numbers. Actually they are characters (although all numeric e.g. roll number 123456789123456 ). By the time it gets into excel it is a number in scientific notation. I want to then read that into a SAS data set as a character field. =15

Any solution or sample code ? Regards,
