You need to describe in much more detail what you did. Note that the OR operator is a BOOLEAN operator. The only values it can return are 0 (FALSE) and 1 (TRUE). So I assume you did some type of WHERE clause that might have had an OR operator in it and one of the values of one of the variables in the resulting dataset had a value that was 1000 or higher.

Or perhaps your variable has a FORMAT attached to it so that some other value is displayed as the text ">999.999". That is what format are for, to control how values are displayed as TEXT in reports.

If you are using PROC LOGISTIC ,Check UNIT statement.

proc logistic data=Data1 plots(only)=roc(id=id);
model disease/n= age  / scale=none
clparm=wald
clodds=pl
rsquare;

units age=10;

run;

What did you do? Show us the code. Show us (a portion of) the data.

"got od as >999.999" what is "OD"? Why is >999.999 "weird"?
