So, in order to process it I need to change or translate it into english. <BR /> Is this possible in SAS? As SAS has multilingual support .<BR /> I have gone through a pdf which says we can process multilingual data with SAS 9.2 Unicode Server.<BR /> Thanks &amp; regards<BR /> Samuel Tue, 19 Jan 2010 05:46:26 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/Process-Dispaly-Multilingual-Data-with-SAS/m-p/42085#M8639 R_Win 2010-01-19T05:46:26Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/Process-Dispaly-Multilingual-Data-with-SAS/m-p/42086#M8640 The SAS NLS documentation will help you here - it has UNICODE informats for data translation as well as the ENCODING related environment settings you will need to explore.<BR /> <BR /> Start here:<BR /> <BR /> SAS National Language Support (NLS)<BR /> <A href="http://support.sas.com/documentation/onlinedoc/nls/index.html" target="_blank">http://support.sas.com/documentation/onlinedoc/nls/index.html</A><BR /> <BR /> <BR /> Scott Barry<BR /> SBBWorks, Inc.
