ERROR:  An exception has been encountered.

This same exception can occur when any process executes a RISK procedure step that contains a WRITELISTS statement, such as the following:

proc risk;
. . .more SAS statements. . .
writelists out=mytemp.temptbl objtype=24;
. . .more SAS statements. . .
run;

This issue occurs because internal processing handles memory incorrectly.
