I have a simple data set that I would like to analyze using stem-and-leaf/boxplots, but I only want the textual graphs, not the output tables. This is the data step:
DATA CLINIC;
INPUT ID $ 1-3
GENDER $ 4
RACE $ 5
HR 6-8
SBP 9-11
DBP 12-14
N_PROC 15-16;
AVE_BP = DBP + (SBP - DBP)/3;
DATALINES;
001MW08013008010
002FW08811007205
003MB05018810002
004FB 10806801
005MW06812208204
006FB101 07404
007FW07810406603
008MW04811207006
009FB07719011009

I'm using proc univariate, but I'd like to suppress the output of only the tables, not the plots themselves. Using the noprint statement, all output is suppressed:
proc univariate noprint;
var SBP DBP;
Using only the plots option, no output is suppressed, so both the plots and the tables are shown.
proc univariate plots;
var SBP DBP;
Obviously, specifying both doesn't work either.
proc univariate plots noprint;
var SBP DBP;
Is there any way to suppress only the tables, not the plots themselves?
UPDATE: I worked the suggested code into my full code sample, and both the tables and the plots are still displayed. Here is the full code sample, run in a fresh SAS session on a different machine than the previous code (both machines use SAS 9.3).
PROC DATASETS LIBRARY=WORK;
DELETE clinic;
DATA clinic;

@6 HR 3. @9 SBP 3. @12 DBP 3. @15 N_PROC 2.;
AVE_BP = DBP + (SBP - DBP) / 3;

Since version 8, when Output Delivery System (ODS) was added to SAS, I'm a big fan of it.
ods trace on; + original code (proc univariate... here) to determine (from LOG) what outputs is it producing (also visible in Results Tree).ods select ...; to make you selection.ods select all; to reset back.ods trace on; ods select Plots; proc univariate plots; var SBP DBP; run; ods trace off;
ODS is much more then this, certainly worth studying - make a search for ODS user guide.
