"The width value for F is out of bounds. It should be between 1 and 32."

My sql code converts two numeric fields to characters and .I have no clue why this error is comming.

Share your SAS code along with the SAS-generated log output showing the error as it appears. You will get the most expedient and accurate reply when you consider these suggestions with any future posts as well -- also to include your SAS version, OS platform, whether SAS is installed locally or on a SAS server, and whether the related SAS code piece has ever worked or not in the past.
