I got it right in our SUN/Solaris,
you system may use different font set,
you can try 

data _null_;
do i=1 to 255;
a=byte(i);
put i= ' ' a;
end;
run;

See if you can find it in the list.

Hi there:

Her is what I got from my PC SAS:

1
2    data _null_;
3     call symput('unit', byte(176));
4     run;

NOTE: DATA statement used:
      real time           0.71 seconds
      cpu time            0.09 seconds


5
6     %put &unit;
°
 I want this &unit in my unix Sun02. But I failed to get it. Does someone
can direct me how I can approach it.

Thanks in advance,

Meifen
