Error Reading Cspro .dat or .csdb into SAS Software
Posted: July 16th, 2022, 5:06 am
We have been using Cspro since version 2. to Cspro 7.6 for all this period we have been using SAS software to read cspro data into
SAS package. But the problem started when we want to use SAS to read data that was captured using Cspro 7.6. It's now giving an error
Which says String input/output error. It reads part of the data and stops. If You explore where the error is found, in the data after opening with
notepad you could see fun characters such as tree, car, hut etc. These characters we are wondering how they could get in during data entry.
It seems these coding system is not ASCII codes.
We don't know how to trouble shoot this issue.
