Hi all!
I want to make a graph: in the x axis i want to put month and lower year, and in Y axis rate.
How can I do it?
Thanks!
Do you mean multiple X axis or multiple labels on the X axis?
It helps if you show a picture and sample data that mimics your data.
I think the easiest way to handle this case is to combine the two variables into a SAS date variable and use that variable in SGPLOT. Here is a simple example:
data datedata;
format newdate monyy.;
do year=2000 to 2002;
do month=1 to 12;
newdate = mdy(month,01,year);
y=ranuni(123);
output;
end;
end;
run;
proc sgplot data=datedata;
scatter x=newdate y=y;
run;
Your data must contain at least several years worth the information. The system determined that the best format for your time axis was years. You can force it to months by adding this statement to your SGPLOT code;
xaxis interval=month;
Hope this helps!

Hmmm.. I'm not sure how you would get behavior. When I run the code I gave you from 2000 to 2005, I get the attached picture. Can you show us your SGPLOT code (without the data)?
Thanks!

Try this and see if this is what you want:
proc sgplot data=sashelp.air;
where date between '01jan1955'd and '01jan1957'd;
series x=date y=air;
run;
