Hi
I am getting an error message when running the following code:
PROC DATASETS LIBRARY = LIB NOLIST;
APPEND BASE = LIB.HISTRCL_DATA
DATA =LIB.NEW_DATA;
RUN;
Here is the error message
ERROR: File LIB.HISTRCL_DATA cannot be updated because its encoding does not
match the session encoding or the file is in a format native to another host, such as
WINDOWS_32.
Thanks
Encoding is a big subject! Here is a link to a SAS paper that discusses internationalization, which is where encoding comes in.
The paper should give you the information you need to solve your problem.
Good luck!
Tom
