Re: Problem with numbers converted to dates

Can this be added to future updates or versions? As the default in my version is to display these as dates it means I will have to loop through all the series to set the format.

Re: Problem with numbers converted to dates

Thanks. Is there a way to set a global default. Or find out what that default is?

Re: Problem with numbers converted to dates

Thanks for the reply. In a program this would be done using the setformat command? The problem is that it appears the default is to convert these numbers into a date. It means when we export it into Excel the series it affects are shown as dates whilst others are numbers. My colleagues have the same...

Problem with numbers converted to dates

Hello, I am manipulating series where the numerical result should be around 700,000. However Eviews 10 returns the result as a date. For example if I run the following in the commands window test3 comes out as a date: wfcreate a 1990 2050 series test1=681942 series test2=47279 series test3=test1+tes...

Re: Fetching/storing to network in Eviews 10

Thanks for the update. Does that mean you have the same issue when running Eviews 10 on Windows 10?

Re: Fetching/storing to network in Eviews 10

Eviews 10 runs at the same speed as Eviews 8 on my old laptop (running Windows 7). So this suggests it is something to do with my new laptop. My colleague who has got the same new laptop also has the same problem with Eviews 10, so it suggests it is not unique to my machine. It could be related to W...

Re: Fetching/storing to network in Eviews 10

It takes twice as long to run a program that is only a series of fetch commands. The Eviews 10 I'm using is on a new Windows 10 laptop. My copy of Eviews 8 was on a different laptop running Windows 7. My colleague who has the same problem also changed to the same Windows 10 laptop I got. Other colle...

Fetching/storing to network in Eviews 10

I have programs that fetch/store to Eviews databases located on a local network. I have recently upgraded to Eviews 10 from Eviews 8 and have found that the new version is significantly slower in these tasks. My colleague has recently got Eviews 9.5 and he has the same problem. It does not seem to b...
