Problem Note 35428: Warning messages that incorrectly produce a RC=0 now correctly produce a RC=4 in SAS 9.2
The following information documents warning messages that incorrectly produce a RC=0 prior to SAS 9.2 that correctly produce a RC=4 in SAS 9.2, and other warning messages new to SAS 9.2 that produce a RC=4.
Warning messages that correctly set the RC=4 in SAS 9.2 that incorrectly set the RC=0 prior to SAS 9.2 are:
WARNING: Variable xxx has already been defined as numeric.
WARNING: Character format specified for the result of a numeric
expression.
New warning messages for SAS 9.2 of general nature that were not in 9.1.3 are:
