I'm reading in a text file using an infix statment. Some of my variables
(the nce variables) occupy 3 columns but have an implied decimal between
the 2nd and 3rd columns. How do I correctly specify this in my infix
statement?
Here's the a snippet of the code I'm using:
infix
record 1-2
str studln 3-13
str studfn 14-22
str sudmi 23
str studnum 33-42
<much stuff deleted>
nce_str1 3450-3452
nce_str2 3453-3455
nce_str3 3456-3458
nce_str4 3459-3461
nce_str5 3462-3464
nce_str6 3465-3467
nce_str7 3468-3470
nce_str8 3471-3473
nce_str9 3474-3476
nce_str10 3477-3479
nce_str11 3480-3482
nce_str12 3483-3485
nce_str13 3486-3488
nce_str14 3489-3491

nce_str21 3510-3512
nce_str22 3513-3515
nce_str23 3516-3518
nce_str24 3519-3521
nce_str25 3522-3524
nce_str26 3525-3527
