Charting Data

CHART procedure programs work with data described by view descriptors just as they do with SAS data files. The following example uses the view descriptor VLIB.EMPPOS to create a vertical bar chart of the number of employees each manager has had:

    proc chart data=vlib.emppos(s2kpw=demo);
       vbar manager;
       title2 'Data Described by VLIB.EMPPOS';
    run;

Vertical Bar Chart Showing Number of Employees per Manager shows the information for this example. The number of employees for each manager is represented by the height of the bar.

For more information on the CHART procedure, see the SAS Procedures Guide. If you have SAS/GRAPH software, you can create colored block charts, plots, and other graphics based on SYSTEM 2000 data. See SAS/GRAPH Software: Reference for more information on the kinds of graphics you can produce with this SAS software product.
