Question About Faceted Bar Charts

[bdates]

Can a faceted bar chart be used with more than two groups? I use the syntax below to produce a chart that distinguishes between two groups, typically intervention and comparison. I'm evaluating several programs which have more than one intervention group, so perhaps a chart comparing three intervention types and one comparison group. When I enter more than two codes in the the SCALE for dim3, e.g., "1","2","3","4", I get a chart with no bars for any of the groups. What am I missing?

GGRAPH

  /GRAPHDATASET NAME="graphdataset" VARIABLES=BPRS group MISSING=

  LISTWISE REPORTMISSING=NO

  /GRAPHSPEC SOURCE=INLINE.

BEGIN GPL

 SOURCE: s=userSource(id("graphdataset"))

 DATA: BPRS=col(source(s), name("BPRS"))

 DATA: group=col(source(s), name("group"), unit.category())

 GUIDE: axis(dim(1), label("BPRS"))

 GUIDE: axis(dim(2), label("Frequency"))

 GUIDE: axis(dim(3), label("Group"), opposite())

 SCALE: cat(dim(3), include("1","2"))

 ELEMENT: interval(position(summary.count(bin.rect(BPRS*1*group))) ,

   shape.interior(shape.square))

END GPL.

Thanks for any insight.
