how to read a dataset with ampersands
Posted: Tue Sep 28, 2010 8:06 am
I have a problem. I have to read a dataset that contains many ampersands in its records.
I have to do that using a CLIST.
When CLIST finds a ampersand, occurs a error because CLIST thinks that the ampersand is a variable.
How can I read these records?
Is there a way to change the first character of a variable (the ampersand) within a CLIST?
Excuse-me by my English, my native idiom is Portuguese from Brazil.
