How to control X-axes and Y-axis is CIF macro

Hi all,

I am working on a huge data set (8+ million records), and I need to generate cumulative incidence curves where I can control the X-axis and Y-axis.

I am looking for fixed X-axis intervals (like 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 years) rather than automatic sas generated axes values.

%CIF(DATA=bmt,TIME=Ftime,STATUS=Status,EVENT=1,CENSORED=0,GROUP=Diagnosis,OPTIONS=NOTEST);

I used the OUT=cifout option, but the graphs I get from this are funky. I am not getting the same graphs as I originally got. Is there anyway I can modify the graph axes in the original macro code?

%CIF(DATA=bmt, OUT=cifout, TIME=Ftime,STATUS=Status,EVENT=1,CENSORED=0,GROUP=Diagnosis,OPTIONS=NOTEST);

%CIF(DATA=bmt,TIME=Ftime,STATUS=Status,EVENT=1,CENSORED=0,GROUP=Diagnosis,OPTIONS=NOTEST);



%CIF(DATA=bmt, OUT=cifout, TIME=Ftime,STATUS=Status,EVENT=1,CENSORED=0,GROUP=Diagnosis,OPTIONS=NOTEST);

Thank you so much for all your help in advance!

What version of SAS are you running?

%put &=SYSVLONG4;

Great, then you can use PROC LIFETEST, as mentioned at http://support.sas.com/kb/45/997.html

You can use the OUTCIF= option in PROC LIFETEST to write the estimated CIF to a SAS data set, then you can use PROC SGPLOT and have complete control over the axes.
