It seems that the DELETE VARIABLES line is causing this problem.
Until a fix for that is forthcoming, I suggest leaving out that line.

I think that the content of this earlier email may answer
your questions.
The file I was working with is a merge of voter
registration data from all of the counties in Florida (which is
public information). Since I could not make the N 100 work, I
decided to do to the file of the smallest county what I did to the
Florida totals, so that I could have one small enough to email it to
you. First, I ran this smaller file on the same code. It crashed one
line before where the larger one used to crash, on NUMERIC EndDate
(F10). Then I re-ran the larger one and it also crashed one the line
before where it used to crash.
But this time, the crashed happened when the Variables
window showed up and I tried to go to View Data. First an error
message window popped up saying "Assertion Failed". Retry and Ignore
would not do anything, so I clicked on Abort and had a crash.
Then I ran the code on the smaller file through COMPUTE
EndDate = YRMODA(2021, 01, 31) and it also crashed. So, the file I
have attached should be good for testing whether or not you get the
same results.
Please let me know what you find and what solutions you
suggest.

I haven't been following this discussion too closely I'm
afraid.
Do we have a reliable test case for this assertion
failure? If so,
should be relatively easy to fix.
And what is the file/line number of the failed
assertion? That might
give us a clue.

Ben or John,
What do you suggest? I think there's clearly a
problem as shown by the
assertion that failed?
However, if you have a fix, I don't know how we will
test it...

The irony of this ... is that the Internet is
both almost-infinitely expandable, while at the
same time constrained within its own pre-defined
box. And if that makes no sense to you, just
reflect on the existence of Facebook. We have
the vastness of the internet and yet billions
of people decided to spend most of them time
within a horribly designed, fake-news emporium
of a website that sucks every possible piece of
personal information out of you so it can sell it
to others. And they see nothing wrong with that.
