When I run this code the graph is produced but I can't output it to my drive.  I get the following error:

Can some one tell me how to get around this problem and or how to change my code for getting a *.png file output?

I'm not sure but 

'/folders/myfolders/PLASMACOMPARIS/PLASMACOMPAPTEN/TREAT.png';

is not a PATH but a File name.

 

Try to change to:

ods listing gpath = '/folders/myfolders/PLASMACOMPARIS/PLASMACOMPAPTEN';

you already defined file name and its format in line:

ods graphics /imagename="treat" imagefmt=png;

I believe you need ODS HTML gpath = not listing. It's the HTML destination that's being used in SAS UE.

The problem was that I had mistakenly put a file name in the path.

Thanks for pointing out my mistake.  Once I got rid of the file name in the path, it ran perfectly.

 

Thanks a lot for your help.
