Hi,
I have the following data
data have;
length char $200.;
infile cards dlm= '#';
input num char $;
cards;
1 #body mass index (BMI)can be determined
#by the following calculation:
# Weight (kg)
#BMI= --------------
# [Height (m)]²
;;;;

if I use the proc print the data then it should look like
1 body mass index (BMI)can be determined
by the following calculation:
Weight (kg)
BMI = --------------
[Height (m)]²

Is there a way to insert the solid line in between the weight and
height.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Try replace '-' with '83'x:

data xx;
infile cards dlm= '#' dsd truncover;
input num char $char80.;
cards;
1 #body mass index (BMI)can be determined
#by the following calculation:
# Weight (kg)
#BMI= --------------
# [Height (m)]?
;;;;

data xx;
set xx;
if char='BMI= --------------' then char='BMI= '||repeat('83'x,13);
run;

proc print;
format char $80.;
run;
