Box Plot for multiple variables in SAS

[deleted_user]

In general , to produce Box plot we use

PROC BOXPLOT DATA=SAS-data-set;
PLOT analysis-variable*group-variable ;
RUN;

I'd like to know if its possible to produce box plot as in SPSS when I've say 7-8 variables.Could u give an e.g.

Check the SAS support http://support.sas.com/ website using its SEARCH option or considering using Google advanced search argument shown below:

Could you give a further explanation of what it means to have a box plot with 7-8 variables? I have never heard of such a thing. Thanks.

I mean say I've just one Box plot which has the graph for all the varaibles, which tells if there is a positive/neagative relation between each pair of variable.It may also tell if there are any influential obsevations in the data.

its sometime scalled the scatter matrix

First, you really need to start researching somethings on your own. I just typed "sas scatter matrix" into a search engine and found the answer in less than a minute.

Second, the answer depends on which version of SAS you have. In 9.2 it is easy. In earlier versions, not so much.

Hi:
There's quite a difference between a scatter plot matrix and the output from PROC BOXPLOT:
BOXPLOT:
http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/statug/63033/HTML/default/statug_boxplot_sect027.htm

Scatter Plot Matrix from PROC SGSCATTER:
http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/grstatdesign/61690/HTML/default/p15vesgmtvqg6un1vku8kqip...

If you are running in SAS 9.2, then it is quite easy to create a scatter plot matrix, as described in the documentation above.

In SAS 9.1.3, I believe that products such as SAS/Insight and SAS/Lab were able to produce Scatter Plot Matrices:
http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/sgug/59902/HTML/default/two_sect3.htm
http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/lab/60951/HTML/default/sumscats_graphica.htm#csumscatsfg...

Again, reading the documentation and finding out what version of SAS and SAS products you have available will lead you to the correct procedure/product to produce a scatter plot matrix.

Is it true when it displayed in as shown below ? how to write the codes ?

Please help me it is so important for me...

Could you please start a new thread instead of extending a thread from 2010? A lot has changed in five years. Thanks.
