Imagine that we have ""Name"":""Alain"" in a variable called info.

I would like to replace "" for ", so I will get "Name":"Alain"

 

I have tried this but it does not works

 

		Data Info_1;
		set Info_1 ;
		Info=tranwrd(Info,"""",""");
		run;

How do we do that ?

Hi,

 

Have you tried surrounding the text with single quotes instead?

 

Data Info_1;
  set Info_1 ;
  Info=tranwrd(Info,'""','"');
run;

 

 

Thanks & kind regards,

Amir.
