adjusting y-axis values in histogram statement

[lillymaginta1]

PROC SGPLOT DATA= nt;
HISTOGRAM var1/GROUP=var2 TRANSPARENCY=.5 ;RUN;

I am trying to create a histogram and want to specify the y-axis tick marks. 

Thank you

You can control that from the YAXIS Statement. Which values do you want?

thank you I tried the following statement  but I got an error : 

PROC SGPLOT DATA= nt;

HISTOGRAMvar1/GROUP=var2 TRANSPARENCY=.5 yaxis= (1 2 3 4 5 6);RUN;

See if you can use this as a template

proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
   histogram age;
   yaxis values = (1 2 3 4 5 6);
run;

thank you, the following worked: 

yaxis min=0 max=6;
