Subject:      Merging datasets

     Can anyone find the problem in my SAS codes?  I am merging region with
     sinterrl and writing out to different dataset rinterrl.  So what needs
     a fix.  Thanks in advance.
      ===================
     634        * merge the region data set and the state dataset   ;
     635
     636        data out.rinterrl;
     637          merge region(rename=(count=rcount percent=rpercent))
     638              out.sinterrl(rename=(count=scount percent=spercent));
     639          by varname varvalue;
     640          retain scount spercent;
     641        run;
