Error massage : can not read the variables in linear regression model analysis

[Abushanab_67]

Dear SAS team

I got the following  error massage :

70         TITLE " MULTIPLE IMPUTATION REGRESSION - MVN";

71         proc glm data = mi_mvn ;

72         modeL read = BSBM17A BSBM17B BSBM17C BSBM17D BSBM17E BSBM17F BSBM17G BSBM17H BSBM17I;

ERROR: Variable READ not found.

Although these variables exist, as following:

proc mi data= IMPUTATI.IMPORT nimpute=5 out=mi_mvn seed=54321;

var BSBM17A BSBM17B BSBM17C BSBM17D BSBM17E BSBM17F BSBM17G BSBM17H BSBM17I BSMMAT01 BSMMAT02 BSMMAT03 BSMMAT04 BSMMAT05;

run;

TITLE " MULTIPLE IMPUTATION REGRESSION - MVN";

proc glm data = mi_mvn ;

modeL read = BSBM17A BSBM17B BSBM17C BSBM17D BSBM17E BSBM17F BSBM17G BSBM17H BSBM17I;

by _imputation_;

ods output ParameterEstimates=a_mvn;

run;

quit;

Kindly, can you help me to resole this error.

Regards

When you run this code and get this error, it is because data set MI_MVN does not contain a variable named READ.

If you believe otherwise, and SAS disagrees with you, then in such cases I believe SAS. You have to look at the data set MI_MVN with your own eyes (or look at PROC CONTENTS) to see that it is not in there.
