I'm getting the following error message when running the following code sample:

NOTE: Since no format is assigned, the numeric category variable will use the default of BEST6.
ERROR 22-322: Expecting a quoted string.  
ERROR 76-322: Syntax error, statement will be ignored.

I'm trying to plot tick marks at every interval of 5 on the x-axis.

Running your code on 9.4 m5, on SAS UE, runs just fine! Gets the note about assigning a format for the one variable, but no error.

 

Which version of SAS are you using?

I'm using SAS Enterprise Guide version 6.1 M1.

You can find your SAS version with the following:

 

proc product_status;run;

You should see something like:

 

SAS 9.4 TS1M5PXXXXXX

 

More than likely you're using an old version, but the log and your version will help us figure out what you need to change. 

 

If you have any control/flexibility upgrades are included in your licensing fees.

Please: Post the code with the errors from the LOG, all one post, using the code box.

the 22_332 error code text will show a diagnostic _ under the place SAS is finding the error.

 

Since your version of EG looks a tad outdated I am going to suspect an SGPLOT option not available in an earlier release.

I couldn't find anything in the documentation that indicated where the problem might have occurred, but did find the following technical note: http://support.sas.com/kb/54651.html

 

I'd suggest trying the following:

 

/* Overlay fitted Lognormal density with original data. */
title 'ACUTE_LOS count data overlaid with Lognormal fitted distributions for RPT_CTBH15041_CTPAR_CY2015_2017';
proc sgplot data=PlotData noautolegend;
    vbarparm category=ACUTE_LOS response=freq / legendlabel='ACUTE_LOS Count Data';
    series x=ACUTE_LOS y=pdf_lognormal / markers markerattrs=(symbol=circlefilled color=red size=1) 
                         lineattrs=(color=red)legendlabel='Fitted Lognormal PDF';
    xaxis values=('1' '6' '11' '16');
    yaxis display=(nolabel);
    keylegend / location=inside position=NE across=1;
run;
