ODS Table Output for PROC GLM and LSMEANS

[LEN1]

Hi

May you please assist, from the below syntax for an augumented design

Proc glm;

Class blk X C;

Model NP NE MOI FW GW GLS PLS HM1 MSV GDS =  blk C X(C);

RANDOM BLK/TEST;

lsMEANS C X(C)/STDERR;

RUN;

i am getting no-est for the LS mean

[Ksharp]

Try :

Model NP NE MOI FW GW GLS PLS HM1 MSV GDS =  blk C X(C) / solution ;

[LEN1]

Hi Esteemed

The output that came out has anova tables that do not have F-values and P>F. There is also no values for Coeff var and root MSE. For the estimates there are also no value for sterror, t Value and Pr >/t/. The LSmean is still Non-est. May you please assist again.

The non-estimability is almost certainly due to empty cells.  You are fitting C and X*C, and if every level of C is not "connected" for every level of X, then C cannot be estimated at the levels where connection doesn't happen.  See the documentation regarding estimable functions for more depth on this.  As a way to check this, add this statement to your GLM:

MEANS X(C);

and look for missing cells.
