ENCODING Subcommand (SAVE CODEPAGE command)

ENCODING specifies the code page character encoding format of the file. The keyword is followed by an equals sign and the keyword LOCALE or a quoted encoding specification.

LOCALE: Saves the file in the current locale encoding. This is the default setting. For more information, see the SET command, LOCALE subcommand.
'encoding': The quoted encoding value can be a numeric Windows code page value (for example, '1252'), or an IANA code page value (for example, 'iso8859-1' or cp1252).

Example

SAVE CODEPAGE
  /OUTFILE='/data/empl.sav'
  /ENCODING='cp1252'.
