Hello,
I am using the following code to write a text file;
DATA _NULL_;
SET HAVE;
FILE 'pathofthefile/nameofthefile.txt' encoding="utf-8";
IF =_N_=1 THEN PUT 'TITLE OF THE FILE';
RUN;
I check with notepad++ that the file is encoding in UTF-8 with BOM.
I need it to be encode in UTF-8 without BOM
Do know if it exists any option to achieve that .
Thank You.
Add the following before your data _null_ step:
options nobomfile ;
