No, but it is possible to do this with PROC SGPLOT if you have SAS 9.2. What version of SAS are you running?

I use SAS 9.2.
I need to include in the same graph: 2 bars and 3 lines.
Is it possible with a PROC SGPLOT? If yes, where can i find a good paper which teachs me using PROC SGPLOT?

Thanks for help

Hey MPaola,

The documentation for the SG procedures should help a lot. You can also go to the support site and search for "Dan Heath" to find a number of related papers I've written. In the meantime, here is a very simplistic example to demonstrate barline overlays:

[pre]
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
y2axis min=0;
vbar age / response=weight;
vbar age / response=height barwidth=0.5;
vline age / response=weight y2axis lineattrs=GraphData1(thickness=2);
vline age / response=height y2axis lineattrs=GraphData2(thickness=2);
run;
[/pre]

Hope this helps,
Dan
