Subject:   How to handle very large text strings in SAS ??

Hi all :

We have to deal with one single text string per occasion, but this could be 10 million (or more) characters long. It is a txt-file. How would you bring it to SAS ?? Main purpose is the counting of certain substrings - maybe with proc sql, with SAS or perl text string functions (in SAS).

I'd appreciate getting some good ideas.

Werner .
