A SAS data set read using Cross Environment Data Access (CEDA) and has integrity constraints defined directly cannot be loaded directly into a HASH table DATASET parameter of the DECLARE statement.

The following message is the result:

   WARNING: Integrity constraints cannot be processed for
            file (SAS data set name ) because its encoding does not
            match the session encoding or the file is in a format
            native to another host, such as HP_UX_64, RS_6000_AIX_64,
            SOLARIS_64, HP_IA64.

   ERROR: Hash data set load failed at line nnn column nn.

   ERROR: DATA STEP Component Object failure.  Aborted during the
          EXECUTION phase.

Known work-arounds:
1. Use the SET statement to read the data set and the ADD method to build the hash table.
2. Copy the original SAS data set to the WORK library, load the HASH table from the WORK data set.
