Hi Bernard,
It seams OK to use ORDER, even I got a NOTE statment in the LOG,
because I want the SUBNO column shows one record only in the first
row for each patient. I use this all the time without any problem.
I do not think it will cause the segmentation violation. Ed Cabanero
from San Diego suggested that the formats I used might cause the real
problem. I will check the formats one by one to see his proposal.
Thanks any way for your help.
James
