proc sgploy vbar

[gx2144]

title "Gender Distribution of Company A";
proc sgplot data = baseline;
vbar Sex__Male_1_ /response=percent  datalabel ;
format Sex__Male_1_ sex.;
run;

response = percent not working the log shows:

35  ods trace on;
136  title "Gender Distribution of Company A";
137  proc sgplot data = baseline;
138  vbar Sex__Male_1_ /response=percent  datalabel ;
ERROR: Variable PERCENT not found.
139  format Sex__Male_1_ sex.;
140  run;

Need help to transform the yaxis into percent format

[ballardw · Accepted solution]

RESPONSE= requires a variable in the data set.

STAT=percent specifies the statistic used for the Yaxis

So perhaps you are looking for something like:

proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
   vbar age / stat=percent;
run;

where each bar at the Age value represents the percentage of the number of records?
