Subject:      many ascii files

  Hi SAS users,
 
 Suppose that I have several ascii file to be read as a sas datasets
(SAS Win 6.08). For example, I have the following files in c: directory.
 
 data1.dat; data2.dat; data3.dat,...,data999.dat, data1000.dat,...
 
 Question: Is it possible to do this in an iteractive manner? Such as,
           doing a loop.
 
 I can do this as bellow:
 
 data data1;
 infile "c:\data1.dat";
 input a1-an@@;
 run;
 
 data data2;
 infile "c:\data2.dat";
 input a1-an@@;
 run;
 .
 .
 .
 data data100;
 infile "c:\data100.dat";
 input a1-an@@;
 run;
 .
 .
 .
 .
 
but, in my problem this procedure is too hard.
 
 
 Thanks
