You can copy this sample file to create your own sahel soil file. Just change the values, then copy and paste as an ordinary text file.
*============================================================*
* SAHELIN.DAT. Soil data input file for DRSAHE (SAHEL water *
* balance model) as implemented in ORYZA2000 version 3 *
*============================================================*
** Code to recognize correctness of data file: this file for
* SAHEL water balance
SCODE = 'SAHEL'
*---------------------------------------------
* 1. General meaning of the switches
*---------------------------------------------
* ===============================
* SWIT9 = 1 ! Moisture characteristics defined by user parameters
* = 2 ! as defined by soil type number
* SWIT8 = 1 ! Driessen moisture characteristic,
* = 2 ! Van Genuchten moisture characteristic,
* = 3 ! Linear interpolation on user-defined log scale
* = 4 ! Use pF curve parameters
* SWIT6 = 1 ! Initial water content at field capacity
* = 2 ! Initial water content at wilting point
* = 3 ! Initial water content at observed values
* Compatibility of SWIT9 and SWIT8 switches
* =========================================
* SWIT9 | SWIT8 | Comment:
* 1 | 1 | requires WCST and MSWCA for each layer
* 1 | 2 | requires WCST, VGA, VGR and VGN for each layer
* 1 | 3 | requires WCST and PFWC00-PFWC10 for each layer
* 1 | 4 | requires WCST, WCFC, WCWP and WCAD for each layer
* 2 | 1 | requires TYL array for each layer
* 2 | 2 | requires TYL array for each layer
* 2 | 3 | incompatible
* 2 | 4 | incompatible
* Meaning of TYL soil type numbers
* ================================
* (Driessen moisture characteristic)
* 1. Coarse sand 11. Fine sandy loam
* 2. Medium coarse sand (mcs) 12. Silt loam
* 3. Medium fine sand 13. Loam
* 4. Fine sand 14. Sandy clay loam
* 5. Humous loamy mcs 15. Silty clay loam
* 6. Light loamy mcs 16. Clay loam

* Observations/measurements
* Switches to force observed water contents in water balance
*-----------------------------------------------------------*
* WCL1_OBS, WCL2_OBS,...WCL10_OBS: Observed soil water contents
* in layer 1, 2, ..., 10. Format: year, day number, water content
* Not obligatory to give data
*WCL1_OBS =
* TO BE FILLED-IN (OPTIONAL)
** Parameter to set forcing of observed water content yes (2) or no (0)
** during simulation (instead of using simulated values)
*WCL1_FRC = 0 ! No forcing
*WCL1_FRC = 2 ! Forcing
* Table for interpolation of water content between soil layers for
* those layers for which no observations were made: first number is
* the soil layer for which interpolation needs to be done, the second
* is the number of the underlying soil layer, the third is the number
* of the overlying soil layer. No interpolation is performed when all
* three numbers are the same:
