How to use Annotate Macros to add shapes

[jlee8]

Hi,

I'm trying to add some shapes to my report and I found this webpage that explains how to use the annotate macros:

https://usermanual.wiki/Pdf/CarpenterE28099s20Complete20Guide20to20the20SASC2AE20REPORT20Procedure2C...

However, when I run the code, I get the following messages and end up with no lines drawn.

WARNING: Apparent invocation of macro LINE not resolved.
ERROR 180-322: Statement is not valid or it is used out of proper order.

Here is the code from the webpage.  Do you see any potential problems?  I appreciate and help or insight.  Thanks!

ods pdf style=printer         
file='/sasdata/TEST.pdf'         
startpage=never; 
title1; 
proc report data=sashelp.prdsale(where=(prodtype='OFFICE'))      
nowd;    
%annomac;
* Build the annotate data set; 
data Annolines;    
length function color $8;   
retain xsys ysys '5';    
* Syntax for the LINE macro;     
%*LINE (x1, y1, x2, y2, color, line_type, size);     
%line(.5,69.6,50.5,69.6,blue,1,30);
%line(.5,80.5,50.5,80.5,red,1,30);   
%line(42.2,67,42.2,94,green,1,30);    
run; 
* Use the annotate data set; 
proc gslide anno=annolines;    
run;    quit; 
ods _all_ close;

It seems that you have copied the code as is from the PDF.

Try to add at the end of each %line(.....); with a semicolon.

Thank you but adding semicolons did not change the outcome.

means that    %annomac  did not run properly.

The log should show something similar to

9 %annomac
