Well, let's take a look at the first one, notDone.
It appears in the code to be used, not calculated, but if its uninitialized that means it's not in the input data set. Most likely you have the variable name incorrect for some reason or are using the incorrect source data set.
So I would check your input data sets where the variable NotDOne should exist and verify if it first exists.
You can run a proc contents on your input data set to see the names. Look at the labels and variable names and make sure you're using the variable name, not the label.
proc contents data=adverse;
proc contents data=drugadm;
run;

Hi,
I was running this piece of code that I was given and I keep getting warnings that say a few of the variables are uninitialized. I tried a few things to correct this but nothing worked for me. I was wondering if anyone would have any ideas on this. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!
