I'm receiving errors that the data tables do not exist. It looks like I'm creating them correctly in ODS output though.
This may be related to warning messages received in log --
WARNING: Output 'chisq' was not created. Make sure that the output object name, label, or path is spelled correctly. Also, verify
that the appropriate procedure options are used to produce the requested output object. For example, verify that the
NOPRINT option is not used.

Any ideas?
ODS OUTPUT statement needs to come either immediately before the Proc Freq code or in the body of Proc Freq before a Run; statement.
Since you have it after Proc Freq then the proc did not know you were requesting the output and none was created.
Your teacher must be pretty mediocre as we have seen many of you with the exact same question and code out of place.
