13036 - ERROR: INVALID DATE/TIME/DATETIME CONSTANT in CPREDUCE

Problem Note 13036: ERROR: INVALID DATE/TIME/DATETIME CONSTANT in CPREDUCE

The following error may appear when running %CPREDUCE:

  ERROR: INVALID DATE/TIME/DATETIME CONSTANT "                  0"DT.

The problem can occur when a table is reduced for the first time and the
SAS system option MISSING= is changed from the default value of
MISSING=. to MISSING=0.

To circumvent the problem, make sure that the option MISSING= is reset
to the default of MISSING=. at invocation of SAS or using an OPTIONS
statement prior to invoking %CPREDUCE.
