Please show the full program and the full log. This error is probably caused by a syntax error earlier in the program, but that is just guesswork until the whole program and log is available.

The underlines in the photograph you posted are showing where SAS first detected the error.

Since it seems to be underlining white space on the screen the problem is probably caused by some strange non-ascii invisible character in your program file.

Retype the problem lines. Or perhaps just replace all of the white space with actual space characters.
