Worse, if you look at how the output from the DIR pipes is read (hard-
coded columns ...), it most likely needs tweaking if your regional
system settings are different from the standard US settings: mm/dd/
yyyy hh:mm tt
filename file1 pipe 'dir "c:\program files\sas\SAS System\9.0"';
data temp1;
infile file1 truncover;
input var1 $ 1-100;
tester=substr(var1,26,3);
product=substr(var1,40,30);
run; quit;
