Sanjay,

THANK you very much! This simple code also worked fine.

Can you please elaborate on how to find these codes (v, ^) for SAS? I searched SAS docs and nothing was there?

THANKS again,

R

On Windows, there is an application called CharacterMap.  You can pick a font name, to see all the characters.  Hover on the character you want and you will see the encoding in the field below.  You can page through a big Unicode font.

As you can see, every character is not centered in the bounding box.  "Caret" is shifted up and "v" is shifted down.  You can also plot another scatter with a DOT symbol to see the relative positioning as shown in attached graph below.  It looks like "v" is shifted a bit down from the dot, and the "^" is shifted up.
