Please try the below code as an example

proc gplot data=sashelp.class;
plot height*weight;
run;

[Allen799]

thanks

You miss the informats of the numeric variables.

Try change your code to:

Data Homework4;
input Team $ AttendanceAW  comma14. PayrollAW  dollar14.;
Datalines;
   ... your data ...
; run;

[Allen799]

Thank you at least it gave me a plot chart.

Can you please explain the comma14. and dollar14. being used.

thanks

Here is your original code with one data row:

Data Homework4;
input Team $ AttendanceAW PayrollAW;
Datalines;
ARI 2,134,375 $106,580,200

   use next code to check your result dataset. Be sure data was read correctly.

proc print data=homework4(obs=20); run; /* check first 20 data rows */

   you will get Team = 'ARI',  AttendanceAW = . ,  PayrollAW = . 

   thus because 2,134,375  is not numeric. By using the informat comma10. sas ignores the commas.
   10 defines the input variable value length, that is 10 characters. BY using comma14. sas expects at most 14 characters.
    

   similar to above, $106,580,200 is also not numeric. By using the informat dollar12. sas ignores the $ sign and the commas.

Your data set is not being read in correctly for some reason. Are you actually reading in from data lines?

Please post the log with the actual error.

Title "Payroll_AW as a function of Attendance_AW";
36 plot Payroll_AW*Attendance_AW;
37 run;

ERROR: All values missing for plot of Payroll_AW * Attendance_AW. PLOT request will be ignored.

Not sure why its not recognizing datalines. I did use the comma14. and dollar14 that another person told me to do and it worked. But I am new to this and have not been taught the comma14 or dollar14 commands

@Allen799 

Did you place the DOT (.) after the numeric like (comma14. and Dollar14.)?

Check ALL your log. I'd be surprised to see your posted data step ran correctly and didn't generate a log full of warnings or errors.

@Shmuel  has given the way to read the data.

Your next procedure may require more memory to plot your requirement. Hope you have that memory. Perhaps you may ask for some summary measures.
