Usage Note 1116: ERROR #52: Unknown type in parameter list
You may receive the following error message,
ERROR 52: Unknown type in parameter list.
when you execute a SUBMIT block from a SAS/AF FRAME application that
references Version 8 controls using Version 6 style substitution syntax.
For example, if you have a Text Entry Control, Textentry1, the following
syntax is not valid:
if dsvar='&textentry1' then /* SAS statement */;
While you should be able to use dot syntax for substitution syntax
within a SUBMIT block in a future release, to reference values of
Version 8 controls in Version 8.0, first assign the value of the control
to a non-window SCL variable (ie. sclvar=textentry1.text;) and then
reference that SCL variable in the SUBMIT block as follows:
if dsvar='&sclvar' then /* SAS statement */;
