  <p>I've used the following proc import's</p>
  
  <pre><code>proc import out=lesdates datafile="C:\work\studies\project\data\calend\bigfilev2.txt"
  dbms=tab REPLACE;
  getnames=no;
  run;
  
  proc import out=lesdates datafile="C:\travail\etudes\projetpib\donnees\calend\bigfilev2.txt"
  dbms=tab REPLACE;
  delimiter='09'x;
  getnames=no;
  run;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But each time, instead of having 2 variables, I'm ending with one variable taking the 2 columns</p>
  
  <pre><code>             var1

  <p>What am I doing wrong???</p>
  
  <p>PS: I can edit the text file but I would like to do the import without touching anything.</p>
