John ,

I have no clue what the valuesa are for variable "dtl_cnt" so not sure if that will cause you more problems later on.

The error are coming from the fact that you are calling the array

a_inj1 (i, j)

Which is a call to a two demensional array, you have defined the array A_Inj1 as a one demensional array.

Explain what you were hoping to accomplish by this line of code: if a_inj1 (i, j)> 0 then do;

And we can help you rewrite you do loop to accomplish it.
