First time posting on the discussion boards here (I believe).
I continue to encounter the error: "ERROR: Array subscript out of range at line 61 column 31."
The code is as follows:
data conversion; set work.combo2; array original_variables{7} rawsug refsug HFCS glucose dextrose total totalsweet; array conversion_variables{7} rawsug_tbsp refsug_tbsp HFCS_tbsp glucose_tbsp dextrose_tbsp total_tbsp totalsweet_tbsp; do vars= 1-7; conversion_variables{vars} = original_variables{vars}/3; /* This is line 61*/ end; drop vars; run;

HFCS_tbsp=. glucose_tbsp=. dextrose_tbsp=. total_tbsp=. totalsweet_tbsp=. vars=-6 _ERROR_=1 _N_=1
Looking at the error you can see VARS=-6
Your do statement is incorrect and resolves to
do vars=1-7 -> do vars=-6
You want
do vars=1 to 7;

Thank you for the quick reply. It is much appreciated.
EDIT: That fix worked perfectly!
