Sir/Madam,
I am trying to plot a graph of trend for longitudinal data such that, at each visit I have the sample size, standard deviation at the point. The attached file "mycode", contains is my code the runs with error. This link " http://www2.sas.com/proceedings/forum2007/041-2007.pdf" has the plot the way i want it to loo like with some code that I have tried to adapt. My first plots have sample sizes all over the place reather than at specific visit, there are two extra vertical lines. Please, also let me know is there is a simple way to correct my code.
Thank you,
Here is the code that doesnot work well:
%let t = 11; /* sample size */
%let NumSamples = 100; /* number of samples */
data Sim;
call streaminit(123);
do SampleID = 1 to &NumSamples; /* ID variable for each sample */
do PD=ranbin(0,1,.5);
do visit = 1 to &t;
JerKAP = rand("Uniform");
output;
end;

In the code that you shared, you have a set statement that refers to the anno4 data set, but there isn't an anno4 data set. My guess is that there's a line missing in the code. Right after the run statement for the anno3 data set is a length statement. That's where the error is in the log when I run the code.
I tried using PROC SGPLOT instead.

NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors.
NOTE: PROCEDURE SGPLOT used (Total process time):
real time 0.00 seconds
cpu time 0.00 seconds
The BLOCK statement in PROC SGPLOT is what produced the yellow shading for the treatment period. If you delete that statement or comment it out, you won't see the treatment period in the graphic.
