Sounds like you could just copy them and give new extension.  Or I
don't understand what you want because you did not give enough detail.

Assuming you want/need to do processing with SAS, the INFILE statement
is well equipped for the task.  There are two basic methods, wild card
filename specification or FILEVAR=variableName where you supply the
names.  Go read about the INFILE STATEMENT it in the DOCs.  The give
more details about the processing you need.
