Hello,

proc sort data=sashelp.class;

by  descending height;

proc print data=sashelp.class;

proc gchart data=sashelp.class;

  vbar sex / type=mean sumvar=height group=age subgroup=sex space=0 descending;

run;

Is there a way to control the order so that for example the chart above is sorted by the descending value of height for sex="male"?

I know that it is possible with sgplot;

You could create a new (numeric) group variable, based on the height of the males in the group, and then create the plot using that variable, and then have it print as the 'age' by creating a data-driven user-defined format (using cntlin stuff).
