Problem Note 17125: LOCATEC/N function is counting deleted rows in its search
The LOCATEC/N function in SAS Component Language (SCL) is documented to
skip deleted rows as it performs its search. On the mainframe only, this
function is not skipping deleted rows in the count of the number of rows
it reads before it finds a match. This might mean that the value for the
return code (RC) from the LOCATEC/N function is different in SAS 9.1
than it was in SAS 8.2. It does not affect the search that LOCATEC/N
performs.
One circumvention is to sort the data set before executing LOCATEC/N so
there are no deleted rows.
