Problem Note 42041: Error creating a custom filter in SAS® Enterprise Guide® or the SAS® Add-In for Microsoft Office when the data item name contains blank spaces
 |  |  |  |  |
Beginning with version 4.3, you can create custom filters when opening information maps in SAS Enterprise Guide and the SAS Add-In for Microsoft Office. If the filtered data item has blank spaces in its name (for example, Number Of Stores), the filter fails with the following error:
ERROR: The filter 'Number' was not found in the information map.
The filter fails regardless of whether you select the Rename columns to comply with SAS naming rules option.
Select the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue.
