If your machine is set for a Latin-1 encoding, when you import
characters from other encodings, such characters might be displayed as
question marks or other unprintable characters.
How to solve this? thanks

options LOCALE=Arabic_Jordan ;
proc import datafile="V:\...\Questionnaire 1.xls"
out=out.BQ1 REPLACE;
getnames=yes;
mixed=yes;
run;

When i use options LOCALE=Arabic_Jordan, the warning: WARNING 35-12:
The current session encoding, wlatin1, does not support this locale.
However, the LOCALE system option has been set to reflect cultural
features. What does this mean? thanks.
