Thank you, that was very helpful. ... View more

Sanjay, THANK you very much! This simple code also worked fine. Can you please elaborate on how to find these codes (v, ^) for SAS? I searched SAS docs and nothing was there? THANKS again, R ... View more

Warren, I figured out the issue, my mistake and THANKS for your help.   ... View more

Hi Sanjay, The original question is I am trying to prepare a scatterplot with the lower quartile (lq) on the vertical axis versus the year on the horizontal axis and to mark these observations on the plot with the character v.  Also on the same plot, I need to show the upper quartile (uq) plotted against the year and to mark these points with a ^. I am interested in showing confidence intervals or prediction intervals on a plot.   I used this code as you recommended:   data new; input year lq uq; datalines; 2015 1200 1360 2014 1170 1330 2013 1170 1330 2012 1140 1330 2011 1130 1320 2010 1110 1310 2009 1140 1310 2008 1120 1290 2007 1130 1300 2006 1150 1310 ; proc sgplot data=new noautolegend nocycleattrs; symbolchar char='2038'x name=c; symbolchar char='0087'x name=v; reg x=year y=lq / cli clm nomarkers; reg x=year y=uq / cli clm nomarkers; scatter x=year y=lq / MARKERATTRS=(SYMBOL=c); scatter x=year y=uq / MARKERATTRS=(SYMBOL=v); run;   It runs but I still did not get the symbol charater ^ or v for either variable. And the uq does not appear on the y-axis? ... View more

I believe the variables c and v need to be added to the dataset but I am not sure about the right way of adding them. I use this other code:   symbolchar char='2038'x; symbolchar char='0087'x; proc gplot data=new; plot lq*year ; plot2 uq*year ; run; quit;   I think I need y on x-axis and the two variables lq and uq on the y-axis. ...

Thanks Warren. I use SAS 9.4 and it does support all these commands. I went through the refs but not much I could get for this specific problem. I re-run the code again very carefully and I received the error messages: ERROR: Variable V not found. ERROR: Variable C not found. This is the full code I am using: data new; input year lq uq; datalines; 2015 1200 1360 2014 1170 1330 2013 1170 1330 2012 1140 1330 2011 1130 1320 2010 1110 1310 2009 1140 1310 2008 1120 1290 2007 1130 1300 2006 1150 1310 ; proc sgplot data=new noautolegend nocycleattrs; symbolchar char='2038'x name=c; symbolchar char='0087'x name=v; reg x=year y=lq / cli clm nomarkers; reg x=year y=uq / cli clm nomarkers; scatter x=year y=lq / markerchar=v; scatter x=year y=uq / markerchar=c; run; ...

Thanks Warren but the code did not work! I appreciate your help. ... View more

Thanks a lot, Rick! ... View more

​Thanks a lot Warren. This is excellent but how can I add the confidence limits (clm cli)? Are these options are only available using "reg"? ... View more
