I saw this strike down a number of machines at a client site.  In all cases
the failure occurred when ODS was being used, and also in all cases the DBCS
(Double Byte Character Set) options had been turned on.

The solution was to write a small script each user ran which parsed their
SASV8CFG file and commented out the lines with DBCS set.  I know there are
at least two lines, possibly three in the config you need to change.

No reinstall is necessary, just change the config and restart SAS.

There is a note on the SAS website, I'm sorry most of our material is being
packed for a move and I don't have either the specific config lines, or the
time to track down the Tech Note.

Kind regards
