If you use a DECLARE statement in SAS Component Language (SCL) to create
an SCL list of options to pass to SASHELP.FSP.VTMAIN.FRAME via the CALL
DISPLAY routine as follows,

   declare list arglist={open='sasuser.class'};

you may see the following errors before the VIEWTABLE window displays:

   ERROR:  An invalid SCL list id was passed as an argument to
           SASHELP.FSP.VTMAIN.FRAME.  Argument will be ignored.
   ERROR:  Could not open the specified Registry key.

When the VIEWTABLE window does display, it will display in New mode with
the following message:

   Could not read items from Registry.  See Log for any messages.

Upon exiting the VIEWTABLE window, you may see another error dialog as
well as error messages in the SAS Log window.

To circumvent this behavior, declare the SCL list as type numeric,

   declare num arglist={open='sasuser.class'};

or use the MAKELIST function to create the SCL list.
