Problem Note 63906: New SAS® 9.4M6 (TS1M6) options for the SGMAP and SGPIE procedures are not working
New options that SAS 9.4M6 provides for PROC SGPIE and PROC SGMAP are ignored in the resulting graphs. For example, a discrete attribute map definition for PROC SGPIE is ignored in the resulting pie chart.
This problem occurs when a SAS 9.4M6 maintenance release is installed on top of an existing version of SAS® 9.4. To circumvent this problem, take these steps:
- Exit SAS.
- Open the sasv9.cfg file. It is located in this directory:
!SASHOME\SASFoundation\9.4\nls\en\
- Find the following line in the file:
-SET SAS_ODSG_CRENDER_PATH "D:\SAS_940m5_WX6\SASODSGraphicsCRenderer\9.44"
(This line in the file might be slightly different on your system; for example, the path in this line could show a different version number, such as 9.43 instead of 9.44.)
- Change the version number at the end of this line to 9.45, as shown here:
-SET SAS_ODSG_CRENDER_PATH "D:\SAS_940m5_WX6\SASODSGraphicsCRenderer\9.45"
- Save the file.
- Restart SAS.
- Resubmit your PROC SGPIE or PROC SGMAP program.
