You can use the CHART procedure to chart data that is described by
view descriptors in the same way that you use PROC CHART with SAS data files. See the
output, which shows the output produced by the following program, that uses the
view descriptor Vlib.EmpPos to create a vertical bar chart of the number of employees each manager
has had. The number of employees for each manager is represented by the height of
the bar.
proc chart data=vlib.emppos(s2kpw=demo);
vbar manager;
title2 'Data Described by VLIB.EMPPOS';
run;

about the CHART procedure, see the Base SAS Procedures Guide. If you
have SAS/GRAPH software licensed at your site, you can create colored
block charts, plots, and other graphics based on SYSTEM 2000 data.
