Problem Note 38777: SAS® Clinical Data Integration 2.1 - Errors might be generated when trying to subset a table

DetailsAboutRate It

The following error message might be generated in SAS® Clinical Data Integration when trying to subset a table in the table viewer using the Subset icon:

Unable to execute query: SQL passthru expression contained these errors: ERROR: Numeric expression requires a numeric format.

It appears that the wrong format is being applied to the selected column. This problem is most likely to occur when the table was opened by dragging and dropping the table onto the job. If you open the table by selecting Open from the Folder list and repeat the subsetting step, the table is subset without errors.

To circumvent the problem when opening the table from a job, deselect the "Apply metadata formats" option and subset the table.
