Cathy,
 
You can use Proc Printto, to redirect the output from your Proc Tabulate so that
it is sent to a file.  You will need to set up your Tablulate so that it doesn't
have the grid lines.  I have done this and then imported the file into an Excel
spreadsheet using the "Import Wizard".  From the spreadsheet you can make
graphs.
 
If you want to send the output to a SAS file rather than a flat file, and do
graphs in SAS, I think you would need to rethink the process and use something
other than Proc Tabulate to create the file.  Maybe Proc Summary.  I don't think
you can create an output SAS file with Proc Tabulate.
 
Hope this helps.

I'm trying to find out if there's a way to output Proc Tabulate output to a
file rather than a report?  I want to graph the output from the tabulate
procedure.  Does anyone know of a way to do this?  Thanks for any insight
you can provide!
