Hello There,

Can you please explain why SAS interpretation " ≤  " sign as "  = " after execution in macro or in proc report?

for e.g

%let a= ≤ ;

%put a is equal to &a;

SYMBOLGEN:  Macro variable A resolves to =

a is equal to =

I also used quoting/masking functions, but i didn't helped.

Thanks in advance.!

orr

regards

ved

You can't use ' ≤ ' with proc report in that way. Try to use style  ~{unicode 2276} .

Post it at ODS and Base Reporting  Cynthia@sas would do that for you.
