Problem Note 13279: Line plot fails when assigned multiple variables which are not valid SAS
names
If you create the graph 'Multiple vertical column line plots using
overlay' in Enterprise Guide and you assign multiple variables that do
not have valid SAS names to the vertical axis, the variables are not
quoted properly in the PLOT statement. This will cause the task to fail.
For example, if you have variables named
var1 test1
var2 test2
that are assigned to the vertical axis, the task will fail as follows:
proc gplot data = work.sort3392;
plot var1 test1 * date var2 test2 * date /
79
76
ERROR 79-322: Expecting a *.
ERROR 76-322: Syntax error, statement will be ignored.
