SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 41067: Using the XML92 engine might generate an error or shut down the SAS® System when the data contains specific characters
 |  |  |  |  |
Using the XML92 LIBNAME engine might generate errors and shut down SAS if the data contains specific characters. The characters that potentially can cause the problem are characters that require escaping, for example, ampersand (&), less than (<), greater than (>), and quotation mark (").
The XML92 LIBNAME engine can overwrite memory when it escapes these characters, which causes the problem.
