Hello everyone! I'm new to writing code and while i'm super excited, i'm definitely feeling the first-timer frustrations. I wrote the following code and received the following errors. I'm totally stuck! Any and all help is appreciated. THANKS A MILLION!

I see two issues:

 

1) PROC SQL; - shopuld end with semicolon. It is missing on the second one.

 

2) Your first lines are: 

OPTIONS OBS= MAX;
* Pull claims - CY2016;
PROC SQL;
	%include "!sasroot\Include\Before_Mars4_MDW_dhh.txt";

shouldn't  the %include line precede proc sql; line ?!

Thank you so much! The missing semi-colon on PROC SQL was an issue. I've fixed it. The code is working now. Thanks again!

It does not look like you provided the code that is generating the error message.

If you want to see the code in the include file that corresponds to the error message add the /SOURCE2 option to the %INCLUDE statement.

Hi Tom! I was able to solve this issue. My coworker looked through the code and found where I was missing the correct syntax (when versus where).

 

Thanks for your help!
