Is there a shortcut in SAS EG that allows me to make multiple plots: y*x1, y*x2, y*x3, .... simultaneously without repeating the Tasks->Graph->Scatter Plot->Data point and click routine for each plot?

I'd like to select a chunk of predictor variables and assign them to the horizontal axis, then select the response variable and assign it to the vertical axis, but alas there's a limit of one variable per axis.

Proc Gplot can do this.

proc gplot data=plotdata;

     plot (y-variable list)*(x variable list);

or

     plot y*(x variable list);

run;

quit;

You could program it using proc sgplot?

proc sgplot data=have;

scatter x=x y=y1;

scatter x=x y=y2;

scatter x=x y=y3;

run;quit;

If you want multiple individual graphs look at SGSCATTER Procedures

Right, I've used sgplot in the past but I have a lot of variables to plot & thought I'd leverage the work with some of the point & click tasks.

Ballardw's proc gplot suggestion works fine - it looks like there aren't any options at the moment in SAS EG for a point and click version of this however.
