how to make a bar graph

[HitmonTran]

Hello,

I need to make a simple bar graph that looks like this:

sample data:

order (num)	var2 (char)	var3 (char)	var4 (num)
1	No Symptoms	screening	23
1	Symptoms1	screening	244
1	Symptoms 2	screening	25
2	No Symptoms	visit 20	50
2	Symptoms1	visit 20	70
2	Symptoms 2	visit 20	30
3	No Symptoms	screening	23
3	Symptoms1	screening	244
3	Symptoms 2	screening	25
4	No Symptoms	visit 20	50
4	Symptoms1	visit 20	70
4	Symptoms 2	visit 20	30

Since the example "data" has nothing that appears in the example picture you have to walk us through the role of each variable and how it is supposed to be used in the graph. Especially what your Var4 represents. You show an example graph where bar height represents percentages. If the value of Var4 is a percentage then 244 is an odd value, not impossible but appears odd.

I believe you have been on this forum long enough to know that example data should be in form of working data step code so we don't have to make guesses about actual variable names and types.

hi,

Prefer vbarbasic of proc sgplot over the old vbar. You will have more features, flexibility and you will be able to compute your statistics with proc freq or so before plotting them.
