Can someone tell me what's wrong with my do if -end if syntax?
Here's the response I get:

compute flag = 0.

do if (discd gt ' 51' and discd lt ' 57').
if (yrmoda(discyr,discmo,discdy) gt yrmoda(appryr,apprmo,apprdy)) flag = 1.

else if (discd le ' 51' and discd ge ' 57').
compute flag = 0.

execute.

        EXECUTE.

Then it keeps trying to execute and I have to manually run "transformations
pending".  But it keeps executing. The messages are the same as the above.

Thanks.
