Hello,
I have the following issue. I have a data set that contains some Chinese text. The data set is encoded in latin1, on a Linux system
Encoding latin1 Western (ISO)
I am trying to print some of these text fields that have Chinese text to an excel file using ODS EXCEL.
ods excel file="/project/Chinese_text.xlsx" style=sansPrinter;
proc print data=project_data noobs label;
var id chinese_text other_text;
run;
ods excel close;
The Excel file has rubbish for the chinese_text column. The other columns are correct and the encoding of the excel file is 'utf8'.
I would appreciate any suggestions anyone has in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
That's an interesting question...I would suggest contacting tech support on this one since this forum may not have a lot of people who deal with this issue mainly because it's English based.
I think you would not get any problem, if your sas encoding is 'utf-8' or 'euc-cn' .
