Hello, I have a dataset with variable name SppCode. I would like all of the numbers of this variable to be four digits long, so 9 would be 0009, 10 would be 0010 and 150 would be 0150. The data are in this format when I import them as a csv into SAS but lose this characteristic in the SAS file. Is there a way to change this either in the import process or after? Thanks.

Mike
