Re: Shading

Thanks, Gareth. I realized what the issue is. In case somebody else runs into this, my string included dates that were outside of the sampe of the graph. For exmaple, it included 1956, but my graph only started in 1975. Not sure why this works in earlier versions of EViews but at least i got it to w...

Shading

Hi, I guess i have not used this shading code in a while, maybe since EViews 10 or 11, but i cannot seem to shade anymore in EViews 12 & 13. I have a string with dates, named c1nber. And I am looping through the dates in the string to shade like so: for %shadedate %shadedate2 {c1nber} c1.draw(sh...

exec prg with space in the path

Hi,

I am trying to run programs using the exec function. However, it appears that EViews will not run it if there is a space in the path. Is there any way to get around this?

Re: Jupyter

Thank you for the detailed response. I followed the more surgical response and succeeded without having to copy "EViews32.ini"

Re: Jupyter

Thanks. How do i run the EDXADD command in Jupyter? I ran it in as a regular commmand in the notebook in the browser and received "ok" as an answer. However, nothing has changed. And also i am not sure how/where to specify the full path to the AIPZ file (i also do not know which AIPZ file ...

Re: Jupyter

Thank you for the info. Two issues came up. The first is that one of my addins has xopen(p), and I am getting an error saying xopen is not a defined command. Is there a way around this? Another issue that our SQL database is not being recognized. The exact error is: "unrecognized format GSQLEDX...

Jupyter

Hello, I'd like to know if it is possible to use add-ins and external databases (like datastream, SQL, etc) on Jupyter notebook in EViews 13? I have had no luck so far; can run basic commands and fetch from local databases (if i include the full path) but it seems to not be using my database registr...

Re: Datastream fetching

I realized that when the start date of the page starts before 1900, i receive the error. However, if i structure the page such that it starts in 1900, the fetching works. Is there a reason for this?
I'd like to keep the structure of my workfiles and pages unchanged, if possible

Datastream fetching

Hi, My colleague is using EViews 12, the Oct 17, 2022 build. He was able to fetch from datastream's dastabase last week, but has been unable to since Monday. After consulting with their team, they asked us to contact you guys to find a solution. If it helps, we had this problem in the past, and i fi...

Re: FRED database problems

According to our IT department, there are no logs that indicate that this could be a firewall issue. However, if you do not know of anyone else having this issue (using the server licnese) then most likely, the problem is on our end. Please let me know if you see/hear of any others with the same pro...

Re: FRED database problems

Thanks for this. Both querying the DB and fetching from it fail. I tried regcom and restarted but still getting the same COM error. I may have misunderstood, but if there is an issue with the FRED servers, as you implied is a possibility, wouldn't fetching fail on our PCs as well (the standalone ver...

FRED database problems

Hello, We are using EViews 12, the Nov 4 2022 build. We have been having issues connecting to FRED since Friday. I am attaching a screenshot. This is on our server version. The database works fine on the desktop (or standalone) versions of EViews. Not sure if this is a licensing issue or something e...
