The type of name is unknown unusual problem

SSG — Mon, 07 Jul 2014 14:23:10 GMT

I'm running the following code:

proc tabulate data=F12_beg_cohort_ET;

where ET=1 and Gender='F'

and DECEASED_F13=0;

class ET ETHNAME_NEW;

var rS13;

table ETHNAME_NEW ALL, Mean*rS13*_ALL_;

run;

and received the following error message:

ERROR: The type of name (CRSLOAD) is unknown.

The variable CRSLOAD is the first one in my dataset, but has nothing to do with the proc tabulate I am trying to run. Why is this occurring and what can I do to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Try after replacing _ALL_ with ALL in

table ETHNAME_NEW ALL, Mean*rS13*_ALL_;
