Change class labels of comparative histogram in PROC UNIVARIATE

fastb — Wed, 28 Sep 2016 19:30:38 GMT

I am creating a comparative histogram (pic attached) in proc univariate and my class variable is entry (entry has two values, A and B).

The labels that are placed to the left of each histogram say "entry = A' and 'entry = B'. How can I modify these so they only say 'A' and 'B' and leave off the 'entry = '. I can't find anything online that says how to modify these. The code that I am using is posted below:

proc univariate data=results noprint;

class entry;

var result;

histogram result / odstitle = 'Analyte' vscale=percent nocurvelegend normal(noprint);

run;

If you want more control over graph appearance than Proc Univariate provides then you might want to try using Proc Sgpanel

Which version of SAS are you using?

I don't get the variable name in the label as you do attempting your code structure with one of my datasets.

proc sgpanel data=sashelp.class;
 panelby sex/layout=rowlattice rowheaderpos=left novarname spacing=4;
 histogram weight;
 density weight;
run;

Thank you ballrdw and ksharp! I will use sgpanel instead of proc univariate to make these.
