I'm trying to convert an older SPSS dataset from 2008 to SAS. This works for the most part but some labels and formats have a � symbol for special characters such as "mu" or a curly apostrophe. Is there any way I can properly convert these datasets?

 

I'm using SAS 9.4M8. I'm running SAS on LSAF (a special computing environment for pharma) so changing the character encoding on the SAS side isn't an option. Any suggestions?
