Problem Note 45927: The SQL procedure might return a Read access violation if a misspelled or invalid function name is used in queries of dictionary tables
 |  |  |  |
Read access violations might occur when a misspelled or invalid function name is used in PROC SQL queries of dictionary tables. The correct behavior should return an error. For example, if the SUBSTR() function was used but was misspelled as SUBTR, the following error should occur:
ERROR: Function SUBTR could not be located.
Correcting the spelling of the function name or removing the invalid function from the query should prevent the Read access violation.
A fix for this issue is planned for a future software release.
