Hi,
I have SAS data set with a variable containing both English and French Characters. The French characters are displayed incorrectly. Any idea?
Thanks a lot.

Try
- LOCALE "fr_FR"
in your sas9.cfg file at the right place temporary in the
C:\Program Files\SAS\SASFoundation\9.2\nls\en directory
or
at startup in your target

"C:\Program Files\SAS\SASFoundation\9.2\sas.exe" -CONFIG "C:\Program Files\SAS\SASFoundation\9.2\nls\en\SASV9.CFG" -autoexec "d:\My SAS Files\9.2\autoexec.sas"
-locale...

HTH
