I’m having issue suddenly on SAS VA when loading the file from local drive as CSV file.

Every other files works except this file.

Tried to load it in different name and won’ work..

Sometimes you can have some funky hidden characters that can cause issues...

Have you tried changing the encoding? WLatin? or UTF8?

Hi Melanie,

I tried both and didn't work..
I changed the file to xlsx format and it works.
I'm not sure why CSV file and sas file format is not working all of sudden just for this file..

Thanks for reply and some funky hidden character from zipcode was giving error and I changed all the zipcode to left(fields,5) and it works.
