I have two different datasets and want to create a plot with two line graph. The X and Y axis in these two datasets are different. Is it possible to add two X and two Y axis simultaneously in one graph. I found its possible to add two Y axis in PROC SGPLOT. Is there any way to do the same for two X axis using SGPLOT or other SAS procedures?

proc sgplot data=have;
series x=x1 y=y1;
run;

proc sgplot data=have2;
series x=x2 y=y2;
run;

First would be to combine the data sets.

Depending upon the final desired appearance there a MANY options but this is a basic graph with both lines:

data toplot;
   set have  (in=in1)
       have2 (in=in2)
   ;
run;

proc sgplot data=toplot;
   series x=x1 y=y1;
   series x=x2 y=y2;
run;

Labels, axis controls, style settings for lines/markers might help make the result more usable.
