Problem Note 15530: Invalid Operation and Termination due to Floating Point Exception errors when OUTSTAT= option specified

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

If the OUTSTAT= option is specified on the PROC VARMAX statement, then the procedure may result in the following errors:

   Error:  Invalid Operation.
   Error:  Termination due to Floating Point Exception.

These errors are data dependent and may occur if at least one of the p-values associated with the F-statistics displayed in the "Univariate Model ANOVA Diagnostics" table is not printed in the listing file.

To circumvent the problem, remove the OUTSTAT= option and use the Output Delivery System (ODS) to output the desired statistics to an output data set.
