Repeating PARSE fields
Description: REPEAT=v is a new PARSE option that can be used to repeat a particular parse field definition multiple times.
REPEAT=v can be used with % to specify v identically defined consecutive parsed fields to be ignored.
REPEAT=v can be used with %n, %nn or %nnn to specify v identically defined consecutive parsed fields for which data is to be extracted. The parsed fields will start with the %n, %nn or %nnn field you select and be incremented by one for each repeated parsed field.
