Problem Note 36990: Blank graph might be produced by PROC SGPLOT with DOT statement
A blank graph might be displayed by PROC SGPLOT when using the DOT statement. No warning messages are issued in the SAS Log when this occurs. This problem is most likely to occur if the variable specified for the required argument RESPONSE= is a character variable.
The variable for the required argument RESPONSE= must be a numeric variable. If your variable is character, you will need to create a numeric variable and associate a character format with the numeric variable.
