Suppose you have a file of raw data consisting of four records per observation, and you only want to read two variables from the second record of the four. The following code accomplishes this. 2 DATA SKIPSOME; INPUT #2 @1 ID 3. 612 SEX $6. 2'; RUN; The previous INPUT statement instructs the system to go directly to the second available line of input data (#2), read data for two variables from that line (ID, SEX), and then go directly to the fourth line of input (#4). It is essential to include the #4 pointer even though you are not reading any data from line 4.
