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;
