Problem Note 64309: Export data that uses a semicolon as a delimiter generates files that contain blanks instead of semicolons in SAS® Customer Intelligence 6.5
 |  |  |  |  |
Export data that you export as a delimited file with semicolon (;) delimiters generates files that contain blanks rather than semicolons. This problem happens after you upgrade to SAS® 9.4M6 (TS1M6) with SAS Customer Intelligence 6.5.
This issue applies to Export nodes and Communication nodes that have an export definition where the output type is Delimited file and the delimiter is a semicolon, as shown below:
A workaround is available. However, you must be willing to use only semicolon delimiters for the output type Delimited file. If you are interested in this workaround, contact SAS Technical Support.
