If it's in your platform's character set you can use the BYTE() function.  I
just submitted the following code under MVS:

data _null_;
  file print;
  do a=1 to 255;
    b=byte(a);
    put @1 a 3.
        +1 '='
        +1 b;
  end;
run;

And I don't see any trademark sign, though I do see that the value for
BYTE(175) is a circled "R" and BYTE(180) is a circled "C".

If you submit the above code on your platform you'll see what characters are
available to you.
