How do you think that it should be done, as you will need to create an external file with each variable followed by a delimiter.

HINT = use TRIM(variable) to save space

Look here at the SAS(R) 9.2 Output Delivery System: User's Guide.

Kevin,

Is ODS not an "add on & pay for" part of SAS ?

I think it's included in SAS/Base.

Output Delivery System is part of Base SAS although not all the conversions are part of base SAS. CSV files are Base, so the referenced link will provide the requested information.
