SAS编码html文件utf-8

Question

Basically,I have a SAS script which sends email to different users. I want to attach some html file with encoding to utf-8 but it doesn't work: " Invalid string ".

This is the example script:

filename outmail email encoding='wcyrillic'
subject="Test"
from='test.test@test.kz';

data _NULL_ ; 
file outmail 
to = ('test2.test@test.kz')    
attach=("/user_data/Kontury_Vse_Filialy.html" ENCODING='utf-8');    
put"Hello!"; 
run;

It works properly on attaching other files such csv. or attaching html with encoding 'wcyrillic' .It seems to me that SAS has troubles with encoding html files from CP1251 to utf-8 , but it looks weird.

Answer 1

ENCODING option defines what encoding SAS have to use to read attached file.

If you want to write attachment with utf-8 encoding to email stream use OUTENCODING option instead.

attach=("/user_data/Kontury_Vse_Filialy.html" OUTENCODING='utf-8'); 

More details about attach options you can find here .
