data rel frequency;
input frelfreq mrelfreq;
datalines;
0.44444444 0.28571429
0.33333333 0.14285714
0.22222222 0.42857143
0 0.14285714;
run;

* Bar Charts;
PROC SGPLOT DATA = Rel frequency;
VBAR sex;
TITLE 'relative frequency';
RUN;


Do you mind pointing out to me why this command is not working?

1. Your data set name cannot have a space in it.
2. There is no variable named SEX in this data set.

If you follow the method I provided earlier, going through the SAS Studio menus, you won't run into these problems.

Thank you so much for your help, sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, where is the SAS Studio menu located? Thanks again,

On the left, it is under Tasks and Utilities

There are lots of examples using PROC SGPLOT. See the reference below. It can come in handy:
