Is it possible to format datalabels in SGplot? I've got a bar char with datalabels and would like to format them comma6.

Thanks,

Brian Adams

And you can use Label varname = 'Temporarily different variable label'; as well.

I think SGPlot respects the format of the variable in the dataset--if you have your x-variable formatted as comma., then it will show up with commas for each 1,000
