SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 32925: An error occurs when you use the IDXNAME= and the WHERE= data set options in an SQL procedure query
 |  |  |  |  |
The following error occurs when you run a PROC SQL query that uses the IDXNAME= data set option to specify the index name along with the WHERE= data set option to subset the table:
ERROR: The IDXNAME= dataset option specified a nonexistent index.
However, the process works correctly if you use these options in a DATA step.
To work around this problem, keep the IDXNAME= option in the query, as before, but use a WHERE clause instead of the WHERE= data set option.
