I don't have V6 SAS and don't know(remember) what information is in
the PROC CONTENTS OUT= data set.  I suppose you have looked and did
not find it.

I think what Robert was suggesting was to use the file created by PROC
PRINTTO and read the needed data into a SAS data set.  We did this
alot in V6.  If you post the PROC CONTENTS captured by PROC PRINTTO
and if the needed information is there we can show you how to read it.

use

OPTIONS NOCENTER LS=132;

When you create the file.  I will be easier to "read".
