Problem Note 19812: Values are quoted when DBCS value has same hex code as delimiter character
If your SAS® program contains a hex string that represents a DBCS
character, and the hex string contains a value that is equal to
the hex value for a delimiter character ('7c'x), then the string will be quoted.
Here is an example that illustrates the issue:
data _null_;
x ='817b817c'x ;
file log delimiter='|' dsd;
put x ;
run;
