Physical file does not exist (INLCUDE MACRO)

[Tom]

I opened a ticket with SAS Support to let them know that the WARNING message was displaying the wrong physical filename.

Any chance you could post your PERSON and DIAG files and where they go?  Also, do you just smash the run button the v2217o1p.sas file directly?  It looks like the call to the main macro supplies default parameter values.

%V2217O1M(INP      =IN1.PERSON,
           IND      =IN2.DIAG,
           OUTDATA  =OUT.PERSON,
           IDVAR    =HICNO,
           KEEPVAR  =HICNO &INPUTVARS &SCOREVARS &DEMVARS 
                     &HCCV22_list79 &CCV22_list79, 
           SEDITS   =1,
           DATE_ASOF="1FEB2018"D);

This is my setup:

When I run it, I just get a bunch of "ERROR 180-322: Statement is not valid or it is used out of proper order." messages, and one "ERROR: File OUT.PERSON.DATA does not exist" message.  Do you have to make the output file yourself?

I got the following working (omg finally):

I think the lowercase column names matter.
There was also a random character at the bottom of the scorevar.sas file that had some messed up encoding.

All-in-all, it was a pretty absurd amount of trial and error to get this thing working.  It'd be nice if CMS would put out a ready-to-run SAS program along with example input/output data.  Special shout-out to the National Bureau of Economic Research for putting this page together with examples: http://www.nber.org/data/cms-risk-adjustment.html
