When you double-click on a table in the SAS^® Explorer window or issue the VIEWTABLE command and specify the name of a table to open up into the VIEWTABLE window, you could receive the following error:

ERROR: Region too small, try again.
ERROR: Cannot make a new region here.
ERROR: No such object.
Parameters passed to method _SETCOLUMNCONFORMTHRESHOLD:
   1 rc = 70
Program returning prematurely at line 2315
AF Program: SASHELP.FSP.DATAVIEW.SCL

When you work with the VIEWTABLE window, information about the display, like the window size, is saved to the SASUSER.PROFILE catalog and to the SAS Registry. The "Region too small" error is often the result of the VIEWTABLE window having been sized very small the last time that it was opened, and, as a result, the VIEWTABLE window is too small to display the new data.

You can resolve this issue by renaming the following two files, which are found in your SASUSER library. Renaming these files will force SAS to recreate them the next time SAS is invoked.

profile.sas7bcat 
regstry.sas7bitm 

To accomplish this, first verify the path of the two files in your SASUSER directory. By default, on Windows operating systems, these files are located in the following folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\My SAS Files\9.1

After you have located these files, rename them as follows:

profile_old.sas7bcat 
regstry_old.sas7bitm 

Finally, restart SAS to recreate the two files in your SASUSER directory. Open a table into the VIEWTABLE window. You should be able to correctly view your data.
