Confession: I don't use IML. On the other hand, this statement stands out:

do until (j=1);

At least in theory, it is possible that ntime could be a decimal fraction and therefore j could be a decimal fraction. If that's the case, the UNTIL condition will never be met by substracting 1 from j. It would be safer (and could conceivably fix the error condition) to use:

do until (j <= 1);

It looks like the error is coming from macro %dropout(data=WWW,id=hh,time=time,response=wt,out=wgee1);

And check the statement about WT .
