proc reg - running time

Liat — Wed, 09 Oct 2013 12:41:36 GMT

Hi,

I want to run a proc reg (3 dependent variables) 1,100,000 obervations.

the syntax I use is:

proc reg data=data_name;

model independent_v = dep_var1 dep_var2 dep_var3 / p r ;

run;

and an error window jump saying sas is going to end because of an unexpected error.

all the 4 variables are continuous.

Can you help?

Thanks,

Liat

Option p and r request a listing of predicted values and residuals. Is that really what you want? You are likely exceeding the capacity of the Output window. Try taking these options off the MODEL statement and use an OUTPUT statement instead to write the values to a dataset.

output out=output_name p=pred r=resid;
