Umm, then those things wouldn't be boxplots.

If you just want a box with median, kth percentile, and (100-k)th
percentile,
look into the interpol=box.... options in the SYMBOL statement in PROC GPLOT
or PROC GBARLINE.  If you want additional percentiles drawn, you may want to
look into the ANNOTATE facility.
