PROC SGPLOT option error and warning

Kysu — Mon, 29 Dec 2014 19:08:33 GMT

Dear SAS experts ,

I cannot figure out the syntax error/warning that I keep getting while using PROC SGPLOT in 9.3.

So I have:

proc sgplot data=final sganno=anno ;

vbar val/response=per group=eot groupdisplay=stack grouporder=ascending

barwidth=0.4 datalabel=labels datalabelattrs=(size=6) missing;

keylegend / location=inside position=topright down=7 noborder;

xaxis display=NONE ;

yaxis values=(0 to 0.8 by 0.05) label="Propotion of ending treatment";

run;

1) I am getting the following error in log file and it looks like some issue with SGANNO option:

1664      +proc sgplot data=final sganno=anno ;
                                   ______

ERROR 76-322: Syntax error, statement will be ignored.

2) Next, I commented out SGANNO option and reran the program. This time it wont process options under VBAR and get the following warning/error:

WARNING 1-322: Assuming the symbol GROUP was misspelled as groupdisplay

ERROR: Variable STACK not found

ERROR: Variable ASCENDING not found.

I cannot figure out why!

What version of SAS are you on? The SG procedures evolved quickly over the last few versions of SAS.

Hi, I cannot understand at the moment either. Can you please upload the final dataset, and possibly the annotation dataset? Are you sure you have SAS 9.3?

I was running under SAS 9.2

Sorry for the false alarm. I was on SAS 9.2

The code works fine under SAS 9.3
