help with sgplot

[kds]

hi,

need some help with SGPLOT.!!
I need to highlight an area of a graph with some light color/slant or cross lines. 
For example, in below case /graph , is it possible to highlight the area starting from 01Aug00 till the end of the X-axis( with some shade/color/slanting lines/cross lines )

Annotate doesn't work with 9.2 sgplot..so I am unable to use annotate with sgplot.

Does SGPLOT has any feature by which this can be achiveved. I searched some of the SGPLOT documentations but unable to find a single feature which can achieve this.

Experts!! Please help me! :smileyplain:

proc sgplot data=sashelp.stocks (where=(date >= "01jan2000"d

                                 and date <= "01jan2001"d

                                 and stock = "IBM"));

   title "Stock Volume vs. Close";

   vbar date / response=volume;

   vline date / response=close y2axis;

run;

Why can't you use annotate .. or was the feature only added in 9.3?  Take a look at: http://support.sas.com/kb/48/123.html

If that was indeed only introduced in 9.3, take a look at: http://support.sas.com/resources/papers/proceedings11/095-2011.pdf
