Hi,

I'm using PROC SHEWHART to make a chart with tests=3 to detect runs of 6 increasing / decreasing values.

In below example (modified from docs), I create a run of 8 increasing values.  But only the first 6 values are highlighted in red. And in the output dataset, only the 6th value is flagged by the _Tests_ variable.

Is there any way to make all values in a run (8 in this case) be highlighted, and make the _Tests_ variable indicate rule 3 was violated for all 8 records? (Other than of course counting myself)

Sample code and listing below, graph attached.

Thanx,

-Q.

length System $ 1 comment $ 16;
label Sample = 'Sample Number';
input System Sample OffsetX OffsetR OffsetN comment $16. ;
if sample=19 then offsetX=21.5; *makes a run of 8;
