This error keeps popping up. The code works sometimes, and sometimes it doesn't work! Very irritating.

Its a SAS NOTE, not an error and it shouldn't affect the running of your program. To suppress it specify this option:

options noquotelenmax;

Unless you know your code is generating long quoted strings (in which case just ignore the message) then most likley you have unbalanced quotes. Fix that. Restart your SAS session and try again.

Note it looks like you are using SAS/studio or Enterprise Guide or some other tool that inserting all of those lines before/after your code. Hopefully the unbalanced quotes are not in that code.

You have unbalanced quotes in code you ran before that. The coloring of the Enhanced Editor should assist you in finding that.
