You seem to point to the wrong table for the proc univariate.

Shouldn't you use Adjgpa?

Hi @pinkyloop, nicely asked question, showing code and error message (not everyone does), followed by a quick response from @ChrisNZ.

 

To round it off, it would also be good to mark the response from @ChrisNZ  as the solution, which highlights the question as solved for the benefit of others and gives @ChrisNZ  further recognition.

 

Thanks & regards,

Amir.
