I want to order the bars in the bar chart, based on my own order, not by the default order. Is there a way to do it?
Thanks
Hi have a look at the VALUES= option of the XAXIS statement.
Find below a code sample:
proc sgplot data=sashelp.cars tmplout="c:/temp/sgplot.sas";
vbar type / response=Horsepower stat=mean;
xaxis values=("SUV" "Hybrid" "Wagon" "Truck");
run;

Yes. Sort the data set so that the categories appear i nthe order you want. Then use the XAXIS DISCRETEORDER=DATA option to tell the plot to use the order of the categories as they appear in the data set:
proc sgplot data=sashelp.cars;
vbar Type;
xaxis discreteorder=data;
run;
For more elaborate examples, see the article "Order variables by values of a statistic"
