When you have completed processing information concerning the SYMBOL, PATTERN, LEGEND, or AXIS statements, use GGLOBALE to free the memory used for storing the internal table that was created with GGLOBALN. For more information about the SYMBOL, PATTERN, LEGEND, and AXIS statements, see SAS/GRAPH: Reference.

Example

Free the internal table that was created by GGLOBALN for the SYMBOL statements, and check the return code to determine whether a message needs to be issued:

rc=gglobale('symbol');
if rc then _msg_=sysmsg();
