The most common cause of this error is when a variable is initialized twice with a data statement, e.g.: data x/1/ data x/2/ ......... I presume that other problems with data statements might cause similar crypticity. I would have sent this to the person who sent the message, but I can't locate it, so I hope this gets to whoever needs it.
