Problem Note 38816: Text fields can be truncated when you export double-byte SAS® data from SAS/ACCESS® Interface to PC Files to Microsoft Access tables

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

Text fields can be truncated when you export Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and other double-byte SAS data to Microsoft Access tables. When this happens, the following error appears in the SAS log:

WARNING: During insert:  : Data value violated the schema for
column (columname)

The problem occurs because the double-byte length is not used when the the text field is created in Microsoft Access.

There is no workaround for this problem.

Note: You must use the second maintenance release of SAS® 9.2 (TS2M2) along with the hot fix. No hot fix is available for earlier releases of SAS 9.2.
