Error on multiple wfsave commands

I have a routine that has a lot of wfsave commands to excel. I have always had trouble with it crashing on these commands but it seems to be worse now, and there is a new error message. Here is the latest one. It doesn't always crash on the same wfsave command. Unable to allocate memory for working ...

Crash when exporting empty group to Excel

I run a big routine every week that involves a lot of exports to excel. I know this should be avoided but evidently there were some instances when it was trying to export empty groups using the wfsave command. It the past, it seemed to do it, exporting only the dates. Earlier this week, I applied th...

Re: Changes to copy command?

Now I am having a different, perhaps related problem with the copy command. What is wrong with this?

copy(o, c=repeats) IFS_New::annual\AUDaTMG_CIF_USD tmpwk1::m\AUDaTMG_CIF_USD

It is getting ignored. No error message.

Instead, now I am storing fetching and that works. Again, am I crazy?

Changes to copy command?

I could be crazy but I feel like I have been having trouble with the copy command in my routines that used to work as expected. Have you guys been doing any work on the copy command in recent updates? This example below was asking a lot of the copy command but I am pretty sure it used to work. It to...

Re: Error Browsing SDMX IMF, IFS 2021M05

Also, I just noticed that the latest version of the IMF IFS data set seems to be from May with monthly data through March. (Or am I just not seeing the more recent version?) I have been getting their data using their bulk download feature on their website which is updated weekly (on Mondays) and cur...

Re: Error Browsing SDMX IMF, IFS 2021M05

Thanks for your help. Now I am able to get it working but I am still encountering problems. The most significant is that the filters to narrow down on the series tend to get stuck on the second or third filter. This screen capture shows a session where you can see that not all of the filters are wor...

Error Browsing SDMX IMF, IFS 2021M05

I am using the latest Eviews 12. When I browse the SDMX IMF, IFS 2021 M05 database, I am getting a Microsoft .net framework error. "Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application..." see screen capture. Any ideas? Also, I had trouble finding sample code that would auto...

Re: EViews32Com.exe Entry Point Not Found in seats.dll

I tried what you suggested and am still getting the same error message. I moved the tmp folder, then deleted it, then uninstalled, then deleted it again. The uninstall seemed to delete the Eviews folder in the program files folder so there was nothing to erase. Then I reinstalled and got the same er...

EViews32Com.exe Entry Point Not Found in seats.dll

I started having trouble with the x13 command. I think it works but I was trying to use a stored spec file and when I did that, it seemed to be running fine (the .out and .d11 files are fine), but the seasonally adjusted data was all NA when it was imported back to the eviews workfile. I need to fig...

Setconvert chowlina?

It looks to me like setconvert can not handle the new frequency conversion methods such as chowlina. Is there a way to work around this?

Also, it looks to me like the frequency conversion methods on some pages (e.g. fetch command) do not reflect the newer methods.

conversion methods not updated in fetch help?

In your help page for fetch, it lists the old conversion methods. In your page for copy, it includes the new longer list of methods. It looks to me like fetch can handle the new methods (e.g. Chow Lin etc...). Am I correct? If so, I think the fetch help page should be updated, and/or refer people to...

Re: Partial Loads of Workfiles

Your little test file works. It is looking like it may be something I have added or changed since the backup. It is not happening to all of my workfiles. I think it is just 3 but I am not sure what they have in common. We do a lot of imports of data from Excel from Bloomberg downloads. Maybe there i...

Re: Partial Loads of Workfiles

Not in this case. In one of my workfies for example, I keep creating the workfile from scratch and it keeps happening. No warning when saving, but then won't reopen. In another big, old workfile, I keep going back to a backup copy from last week and that opens fine, but when I save it, and reopen it...

Re: D is an illegal workfile page name

Okay. I see now that "d" works but "D" does not. Thanks for looking into this for me.

I guess the problem I am having loading old workfiles is unrelated. A started a different post about that.

Partial Loads of Workfiles

All of a sudden, I am having trouble opening my workfiles. It opens them as untitled and I get this message, "File contains an object that can not be loaded. It may have been saved by another version of EViews. A partial load was done in "WFUSE..." I have never had this problem before...
