PROC CAPABILITY is part of SAS/QC.  Run:

 

proc product_status; run;

 

To see if you should expect QC procedures to work.  If using SAS University Edition, SAS/QC is not part of that environment.

Thank you Chris.  It makes sense.  I run the product_status and SAS/QC is not part of it.  Yes, I am running SAS Univ Edition.

 

So the question now is:  in order to check the normality of the variables, besides drawing the historgrams, what other proc can I run that gives me the normality check?   Also, how can I get the the line of the bell curve drawn over the histogram?

Thanks again,

Melva

Univariate or Multivariate?  Check PROC UNIVARIATE for one, and refer to Rick's post about multivariate.  The PROC CORR example looks like a simple first step, and Rick also mentions the %MULTINORM macro.
