Bridge failure with ANNOTATE= option in PROC UNIVARIATE


If you specify an ANNOTATE= or ANNO= data set on the PROC UNIVARIATE statement along with a HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT or QQPLOT statement, the procedure will fail to generate a graph and will abend with:

ERROR: SUBSYSTEM 117 NOT INSTALLED.

ERROR: Unable to load transient module (Bridge failure).

To circumvent this problem, specify the ANNOTATE= or ANNO= data set as an option on the HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT or QQPLOT statement, instead of on the PROC UNIVARIATE statement.
