Does SAS 9.2 have the ability to display a Bargraph with an Axis of percent? My goal is to show a percent comparison of variable ‘Status’. Like the below image. The code would theoretically look something like this.
proc gchart data=enrollment;
hbar enrRepTy /
type=percent
inside=subpct
sumvar=STUDENTS_ENROLLED
pctsum
subgroup=Status
discrete
gaxis=axis1 maxis=axis2 raxis=axis3
legend = legend1;
run; Quit;

Has some examples that should get you started.
A common theme has to do with the AXIS definition in the values part and format chosen.
What I could do is make a summary dataset that has the percentages hard coded rather than attempting to calculate the percentage when making the graph. It is highly likely there is a built in function for this though.
Can you provide sample data?

Ballardw, I found this in one of the examples in your link. It is straight forward.
data my_data;
input CATEGORY SERIES $ 3-11 AMOUNT;
datalines;
1 Series A 5.0
2 Series A 6.8
3 Series A 9.2
1 Series B 6.5
2 Series B 6.9
3 Series B 5.6
1 Series C 2.3
2 Series C 3.1
3 Series C 2.3

run;
proc sql;
create table my_data as
select *, sum(amount) as bartotal
from my_data
group by category;
quit; run;
data my_data; set my_data;
format catpct percent6.0;
catpct=amount/bartotal;
run;

SAS 9.4m2 supports everything you want via PROC SGPLOT (see below). SAS 9.4 supports everything but the segment labels. At SAS 9.2, you will need to pre-summarize as you suggested.
Title "Total Class Weight by Percentage";
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
hbar age / response=weight stat=pct group=sex seglabel;
run;
