Error - Variable Not Found

[kamonpan]

Hello

        I'm trying to run this code but I'm getting the ERROR: variable .......... not found. Please help Frequency in SAS Studio.

CODE

proc freq data=dta ;
table transfusion trans_2gr ;
run;

LOG

67 proc freq data=dta ;

68 table transfusion trans_2gr ;

ERROR: Variable TRANSFUSION not found.

ERROR: Variable TRANS_2GR not found.

69 run;

The message seems very clear. Those two variables do not exist in your dataset.

Did you check the variable list?

Are you trying to use the variable LABEL instead of the variable NAME in your code?

Is it possible you have somehow accidentally created a variable name with a space in the middle of it?  If so then to reference it you need to use a name literal.

table 'transfusion trans_2gr'n ;

Run a PROC CONTENTS on your dta data set to see the variable names and labels side by side.

proc contents data=dta; run;
