Comments: To: Tom Abernathy <tom.abernathy@GMAIL.COM>

I have tried this macro with another dataset, and it does not have this error. I think this means that it may have something to do with the patid variable itself?

In the dataset I would like this to work in, the patid variable has length 8., with format best12., and informat 12. The patid values are actually 10 digits long (ie. 1533130137). Could this be causing the issue? How do I fix it?

Also in response to your message, I have tried it multiple times and it doesn't seem to occur on the same cases/patids.

Thanks so much for your help,

J. Sandhu
