Well first off &dates is not assigned so that code is not included. There is no code shown to define the file referenced by &dates so we cannot know what happened there.

the variable 'dates' is not defined. SAS will looking for the value of the macro variable, 'dates' , from local and global tables. let me guess, it will search local table for the macro itselt, the local table for the macro I:\&qtrloc\LifeMaster\&qtr\Programs\Standard\SASCodeIncludes\lib077.mac, and the global table. That why there are three error messages - there is an Error message posted after failed to search each of the three tables.

Can we see what's in your lib077.mac file? Then I'll bet we can figure this one out.
