Hi,
I know it's stupid question but want to check its possible? Can we create a box plot in proc template without using the 'Boxplot' statement. The reason for this alot of customization involved in my requirement, where box plot statement is restricting me to change because of no options available. Is it possible to create the Exact box plot using the 'Bar' and Scatterplot Statements? ( I feel like dumb while writing the requirement, unfortunately I don't have the choice)
Thank you for your opinions.
