Thanks,
that seems to work. However there are few issues which I had to correct manually:
- the format of some countries like Bosnia,Russia or Taiwan for some reason is not converted from ALPHA2-Codes to GLC-Codes
- Hong-Kong does not exist in the SAS-Names list as an own country ?
Thanks,

Check the data sets actual values and there are some "political" issues involved that you may need to address. The PRC claims that Taiwan is not a separate country but part of China so some folks take steps not to aggravate China, Or may have a different name used than Taiwan. Note that the SAS Maps.Names set has Taiwan in "Overseas Territories, Dependent Areas, Disputed Territories". Similarly Bosnia and Russia may be listed under other names dependent on source.
And the status of Hong Kong is also a tad ambiguous as to "country" status.
