Could you please help with this error?, I checked my variables on both sides of the "=" signs and they seem to be match. However, I still get the error!

 

SprCreditType_0001 ---> character

ConstClass_0002 ---> numeric

 

PROC SQL;

 

.

.

.

 

WHERE (t1.SprCreditType_0001 = 'P' AND t1.ConstClass_0002 = '5')

OR

(t1.SprCreditType_0001 = 'N' AND t1.ConstClass_0002 = '5')

OR 

(t1.SprCreditType_0001 = 'P' AND t1.ConstClass_0002 = '6')

OR

(t1.SprCreditType_0001 = 'N' AND t1.ConstClass_0002 = '6') ;


QUIT;

If ConstClass_0002 is numeric the numbers should not be in quotes, quotes are for character variables.

 

WHERE (t1.SprCreditType_0001 = 'P' AND t1.ConstClass_0002 = 5)
