How to use the NLmeans macro?

[Lucai_sister]

I am learning NLmeans macro to estimate and test the difference in rates. I use

https://support.sas.com/kb/62/addl/fusion_62362_5_nlmeans.sas.txt

to call NLmeans macro. But there are a lot of errors in the code, and I don't know why. Can anyone help me?

By the way, my code was copied from "Macro Argument List Start" to the SAS editor and ran to implement the call to NLmeans. My code is as follows:

data insure524;
input n c age;
ln=log(n);
obsRate=c/n;
datalines;
500 42 1
400 101 2
;
proc genmod data=insure524;
class age;
model c=age/dist=poisson offset=ln link=log;
lsmeans age/e diff exp cl;
ods output coef=coeffs;
store out=insmodel;
run;

%NLMeans(instore=insmodel, coef=coeffs, link=log, title=Difference of Age Rates)

This problem has bothered me for a long time, and I hope that there are good people to help me

Hello @Lucai_sister,

If you follow the steps in my reply to your question in the other thread, it will work without errors. You can omit steps 4 and 5 and use your code (with the INSURE524 dataset) instead.
