graph: fill area between series lines

I have a simple line graph, but have been asked to fill the area
between the lines.

This has me stumped.

I have tried additional NEEDLE statements the seem close, but need
something more along the idea of an AREA statement (which does not
exist in PROC SGPLOT).

The two lines graph the percentage of indivudials in two different
cohorts across their age ranges.
The age ranges intersect/cross at one point, and here the area filled
between lines should change color.

I'm not experienced in Graph and would appreciate help crafting a
solution, or at least a nudge in the right direction. I've tried this
in excel and am still stumped.

Here is my sample code...


proc sgplot data=foo;
series x=age_range y=pct_tot_v_cohort
/curvelabel='% of Total V in Cohort'
lineattrs=(thickness=3 pattern=solid)
;
series x=age_range y=pct_mhv_user_cohort
/curvelabel='% of MHV users in Cohort'
lineattrs=(thickness=3 pattern=solid)
;
run;


Thanks for any ideas.
Bill

And here's a de-identified copy of the summary data I'm using:


data foo;
input
age_range $
pct_tot_v_cohort
pct_mhv_user_cohort
;
format
age_range $6.
pct_tot_v_cohort percent.
pct_mhv_user_cohort percent.

This can be easily done via the SAS/Graph Annotate facility. Here's an
example of using annotate to fill many spaces between lines on my circumplex
that I use to display the results of my Managerial Style Inventory. This
particular example shows a plot of a Disgusting Managerial Style based on 24
actual protocols:

Bill,

Since you mentioned that you weren't able to figure out how to do it with
either Excel, or SGPLOT, and I don't have 9.2 (thus don't have sgplot),
here is a page you might find interesting on how to do it with Excel:

Art and Joe,

Thank you both for the help. I think I will try to do this in Excel,
but Joe your suggestion to use annotate datasets is something I will

Thank you!
