This sample uses macro coding and a FOOTNOTE statement to generate page numbers on a BY-group plot with PROC GPLOT.

While this sample code produces a total of three graphs, the Results tab only displays the third graph.

This sample uses macro coding and a FOOTNOTE statement to generate page numbers on a BY-group plot with PROC GPLOT.

The graphics output in the Results tab was produced using SAS® 9.2. Submitting the sample code with releases of SAS prior to SAS 9.2 might produce different results.

While this sample code produces a total of three graphs, the Results tab only displays the third graph.
