Problem Note 4147: EUROx format may cause abnormal termination of PROC TABULATE
If the EUROx format is used in conjunction with PROC TABULATE, the
procedure may abnormally terminate. The error encountered is system
specific. Typically, the procedure produces output without error on the
first iteration, but subsequent iterations end in an error along with a
partial table.
The following code illustrates the problem.
data one;
x=1000;
y=1;
proc tabulate data=one format=eurox.;
class y;
var x;
tables y,x;
run;
proc tabulate data=one format=eurox.;
class y;
var x;
tables y,x;
run;
