Hi,

I receive this error, I think it may be a simple issue to resolve. Hope someone can assist?

ERROR 14-12: Invalid option value EN_NL for SAS option LOCALE.

Thanks.

Which locale are your trying to specify? The only one I find in the documentation that ends in _NL is nl_NL for Dutch_Netherlands.

There may be POSIX abbreviations, like possibly EN_NL, that SAS does not support and may have to examine the documentation for a likely alternative.
