Hello all,
Any suggestions about this error?
proc freq data=case noprint;
table num*other*crecpt / out=recpt;
table num*other*srecpt / out=recpt;

You have used the same name for both output data sets. Can't do that .... just change out of the names on out=.
Does it work for a subset of your data?
proc freq data=case (obs = 100) noprint;
table num*other*crecpt / out=recpt;
table num*other*srecpt / out=recpt;
run;
For less levels in your data (remove one or two variables).

We used different names for datasets. It's a mistake when posting in the community.
Perhaps you should then post the actual code submitted.
What are the cardinalities of your variables? You may have run out of memory resources.
I got a similar error and traced it back to a text by variable. I got around it by removing the variable (it was redundant with different numeric variable in my case). My guess is that it was a buffer overrun caused by the length of the text. Do any of your variables contain a long string?
Are you ready for the spotlight? We're accepting content ideas for SAS Innovate 2025 to be held May 6-9 in Orlando, FL. The call is open until September 25. Read more here about why you should contribute and what is in it for you!
ANOVA, or Analysis Of Variance, is used to compare the averages or means of two or more populations to better understand how they differ. Watch this tutorial for more.
