SASŪ Macros for Graphical Data Analysis

Doug Lassman, PRA International


SAS/Graph has many useful procedures to aid in graphical data analysis including PROC GPLOT, PROC GCHART and PROC G3D. Combining these with PROC GREPLAY allows for even more powerful displays of data. Sometimes the exact display is not available with the previously mentioned procedures. This is where PROC GANNO and ANNOTATE datasets come to the rescue. Virtually any display imaginable can be created with a combination of dots, lines, bars, polygons and text. After a brief overview of ANNOTATE datasets, several SAS macros will be presented and discussed.
