Importing text data - Circumflex "^"

Abud — Mon, 05 Aug 2013 14:53:21 GMT

Hi all,

I'm from Brazil and Portuguese language has some features like Circumflex and importing a Text Data SAS doens't recognize them.

Is there anyway to fix that ?

I tried this,

data WORK.temp ;

%let _EFIERR_ = 0; /* set the ERROR detection macro variable */

informat VAR1 $1. ;

informat VAR2 $1. ;

format VAR1 $1. ;

format VAR2 $1. ;

input

VAR1 $

VAR2 $

;

if _ERROR_ then call symputx('_EFIERR_',1); /* set ERROR detection macro variable */

cards;

â î

;

Is it feasible to read in your data like this?;
