ERROR 22-322: Syntax error, expecting one of the following: ;, CYCLEATTRS, DATA, DATTRMAP, DESCRIPTI

I am using SAS EG 7.1 on the server installed with SAS 9.4.

The codes could be run on SAS9.3. But got the error:

ERROR 22-322: Syntax error, expecting one of the following: ;, CYCLEATTRS, DATA, DATTRMAP, DESCRIPTI.

The codes in the eiditor is like:

proc sgplot data=out_data(where=(pd_Seg='Term')) pctlevel=group;

vbar dist_yyq/ response=dist_yearqr stat=percent name="vbar" grouporder=ascending

group=ltv_grp;

keylegend "vbar"/sortorder=ascending;

xaxis fitpolicy=thin;

run;

What is the problem? Is that caused by running 9.4?

Earlier versions of SAS 9.4 didn't recognize option sortorder= in the keylegend statement.

Hi PG,

Thanks for you reply.

It seems that the version I am using could not recognize many options. I copied the log files in the following:
proc sgplot data=out_data(where=(pd_Seg='Term')) pctlevel=group;

In order to solve for this problem. Do you have any recommendation? Thanks a lot.

Solve errors in the order in which they appear. Fixing the first error will often remove many subsequent error messages.

In the future, use the {i} tool to paste SAS output, it provides better formatting.
