Hash Merge Error in SAS -

-

i trying create hash merge between 2 tables, output.hicno_xwalk, , papi_claim_01. before, had been doing normal match-merge using proc sorts , data step. here original code:

proc sort data = output.hicno_xwalk; hicnumber plan_type; run;  proc sort data = papi_claim_01; hicnumber plan_type; run;  data papi_claim_01a; merge output.hicno_xwalk (in=a)   papi_claim_01 (in=b); hicnumber plan_type; if (b); run;

now, using this: 

data hash_merge (drop = rc); set output.hicno_xwalk point = _n_; if 0 set output.hicno_xwalk papi_claim_01; *load properties; declare hash merge(dataset:'output.hicno_xwalk');  merge.definekey (hic); *define variable use key (no duplicates); merge.definedata ('new_hic','plan_type'); *columns merge table include; merge.definedone(); *end hash;  until (eof); set papi_claim_01 end = eof; if merge.find() = 0 output; end; stop; *output records hic found in both tables;  run;

however, error in log saying

error: type mismatch method parameter 1 @ line 404 column 5. error: expecting character type. error: data step component object failure.

aborted during execution phase.

what error trying tell me, , how fix code?

thanks help!

key variable name must quoted:

merge.definekey ('hic')

on note, i'm not sure what's purpose of code in data step (like option point or do loop stop or multiple set-statements same dataset), unless need other reasons, not shown in code snippet, hash merge can done simpler:

data hash_merge;   set papi_claim_01;   if 0 set output.hicno_xwalk;   if _n_=1 do; *to avoid re-creating hash-object every time;     declare hash merge(dataset:'output.hicno_xwalk');      merge.definekey ('hic');      merge.definedata ('new_hic','plan_type');     merge.definedone();   end;    if merge.find() = 0;  run;

i have postgresql db number of tables. if query: select column_name information_schema.columns table_name="my_table"; i list of columns returned properly. however, when query: select * "my_table"; i error: (programmingerror) relation "my_table" not exist 'select *\n "my_table"\n' {} any thoughts on why can columns, can't query table? goal able query table. you have include schema if isnt public one select * <schema>."my_table" or can change default schema show search_path; set search_path my_schema; check table schema here select * information_schema.columns for example if table on default schema public both works ok select * parroquias_region select * public.parroquias_region but sectors need specify schema select * map_update.sectores_point

asp.net mvc - breakpoint on javascript in CSHTML? -

-
i have .cshtml file has javascript tag. within script tag have few lines of javascript. first line of javascript refers property in @viewbag. other javascript lines plain script without mvc related references. observation: can place breakpoints (visual studio 2015) on each of these javascript lines. however, breakpoints has white dot in center of breakpoint symbol (red circle) except line @viewbag reference (this particular line not have white dot in center). it seems breakpoint without white dot hit during run-time. question: can explain going on here? white dot mean? why plain red breakpoint line line hitting breakpoint? the visual studio debugger expecting debug actual server-side code within .cshtml file opposed client-side javascript within it. iirc, visual studio allow debug javascript code expected in internet explorer (and possibly edge), other browsers want use either third-party tool or developer tools (f12) within browser. an easy approach take advant...
