If you use the SUBMIT statement to call a SAS procedure that creates a graph, that graph is sent to the current ODS destination. The following statements call the UNIVARIATE procedure, which creates a histogram as part of the analysis:
ods graphics on; proc iml; msg1 = "First PRINT Statement in PROC IML"; msg2 = "Second PRINT Statement in PROC IML"; print msg1; submit; ods select Moments Histogram; proc univariate data=Sashelp.Class; var Height; histogram / kernel; run; endsubmit; print msg2; ods graphics off;
When you run the program, the PROC UNIVARIATE output is interleaved with the PROC IML output. The output from the program is shown in Figure 10.6 through Figure 10.8.
