Also consider a second sheet that serves as a data dictionary with first column names and second column description. That's a pretty common format.

This is interesting solution. I suppose the question is - is it possible to automate using EXCEL add-in?!

Thanks

1/ Ideallly, I would expect a description to appear above the name of the series in the EXCEL (attached pic). But, unfortunately, I have no clue on compatibility issues with EXCEL data type. Appending description to the name of the series?! I think that users would prefer to keep names of series sep...

Dear Eviews, I have 2 suggestions to improve Excel Add-in for Eviews (I have Eviews 11) 1. Is it possible to import a description of the series along with series name into the EXCEL? Otherwise, once you have hundreds of series, it means series names are coded with short name and it's difficult to un...

Eviewers, Anyone knows how to effectively extract F-stastistics and critical values from "ARDL Long Run Form and Bounds Test" view using programming? Freeze of the table doesn't really work, since I have 40 equations and "F-statistics" position in the table changes from equation ...

Dear Views, I tried to replicate Area Band as given in an example workfile “Forecast_unemp.WF1”. Area bands are ok, but I fail to see MEAN line. Manual says that "If there is an odd number of series in the group, the final series will, by default, be plotted as a line.". But it does not ha...

Hi Eviewsers, Forecasting with EQUATION object there is a possibility to opt out tick mark, which says "insert actuals for out-of-sample observations". It means new series WILL NOT be filled with actual observations out of forecasting horizon. Is there any similar option for solving MODEL ...

I just imagine that usually wages do not pass to prices immediately (due to any reason - price rigidity or nature of wage shock, or how markets are (im)perfect etc.). Then it's would be natural to assume that long-run relationship holds exactly entering wages with lag... But then, I'm curious whethe...

Whether anyone knows, is it THEORETICALLY correct to estimate the 1st step of Engle/Grenger 2-step procedure, i.e. estimating the long-run relationship with lag of explanatory variable? For example, relationship between prices and wages: PRICE = c(1) + c(2) * WAGE_{t-1} + u_{t} Is it correct to esti...

Dear all, I estimate cointegration between wages and prices (in logs) using Single-equation cointegration test. I aim at finding cointegration between some cointegration there, however, the results show that according to Tau-statistic I cannot reject Null, but according to z-statistic I reject Null....

I found that Eviews works with opened Excel only if I switch on "Share Workbook" in excel options (.xlsx).
Is this the way how do you enable Eviews to work with opened excel?

Gareth,

Whether your Eviews is working with opened EXCEL (.xlsx) file?

as I see it - Yes! at least I judge the file by extension, which is ".xlsx"

.xslx is a compressed file format. .xls is not. Try running the program whilst the file is open in Excel. Should be much faster (since Excel has already uncompressed). Dear Gareth, I tried running the program, while the EXCEL file is open, but I've got error message saying "Sharing violation f...

Dear All, I have unregular issue with EViews crash when transforming data to monthly or annual changes. In particular, crash happens when I open group of variables, choose required transformation and it crashes (or start to scroll and crashes). Anyone experienced such weirdness?! I cannot really pro...
