Using SAS Software and Visual Basic for Applications to Produce Microsoft Graph Charts

Overview While SAS/GRAPH software produces high quality graphs for presentations, it is often desirable to provide Microsoft Graph charts. An analyst often produces statistics and graphs for an investigator. The investigator writes up the results and presents a talk accompanied by Microsoft PowerPoint slides or a manuscript prepared in Microsoft Word. A SAS graph can easily be inserted into PowerPoint or Word. However, if the investigator wants changes in the appearance of the graph, the graph has to go back to the analyst to re-write SAS code. By providing a Microsoft Graph chart, the investigator can modify the appearance. This paper describes a technique to produce Microsoft Graph charts directly from SAS.
