Problem Note 13350: Warning: INTO clause does not specify a valid sequence of macro
variables
Using PROC SQL and the INTO clause to create a range of macro variables,
where the beginning of the range starts at zero, produces a warning.
This warning did not not occur in SAS 8.2.
The following code would generate an error:
proc sql noprint;
select col1 into :macvar0 - :macvar10
from old;
quit;
