Brilliant, thanks

Thanks Gareth,

I'm making the graph in Eviews. Select time-series variable, then generate the graph with the quick graph tool. It's done as the default line form.

I thought I'd give the new animated graph feature a try, but every time I load some time series data and graph it, the 'animate' button does not appear in the graph toolbar. Which means I can't animate the graph. I have Eviews12 and all the latest updates and patches. Some clues as to what is going ...

Got it all figured

Ah, sorry. I import the data from a csv file, as unstructured data. Screenshot added. ID is the highest level, this branches into sruvey_qnumber (1-9) and this branches into 1-4 alternatives. My goal is to collate and aggregate each of the 4 alternative rows into one row, using select variable value...

My data is organised as following hierarchy: 1843 subjects, each with 9 sets of questions across 4 alternatives. For each set of 4 alternatives I want to find the highest value of one variable (if it is present). So everything I do I want to do on each set of 4 alternatives. for !i=1 to 1843 for !j=...

Got it, sorry, where date is the original date series

M=@datepart(date, "mm")

M contains the full date. I can't seem to find a function/syntax that extracts just the month info

Appreciate the help I've been getting, but have it a new snag. Series M is the date of each observation. E.g. 1993-08-26 I can't seem to figure out a way to extract just the month from this series, in a 1 to 12 format. Which I can use in the following FOR/NEXT loop. (The actual year part in loop run...

It might be that something like:

will work.

Brilliant, works perfectly. Thanks

I'm still a novice when it comes to programming, and have a problem. I've got a large data set, based on roughly 20,000 hunters and 15 years. What I want is the minimum length of each alligator for each hunter, for each year. The current code is for !year = 2000 to 2014 smpl if harvestyear=!year for...

Excellent- the proc/map is beautifully simple

I've got a data series that is just a list of village names in PNG. I'd like to assign each one a unique numeric code (to make programming For/NEXT loops easier). So Village A gets value of 1, village B 2, Village C 3 etc. I'm just not seeing in programming or command reference how to achieve this.....

Thanks- I suspect there's something very simple I've overlooked.

Hi all- I'm on Eviews 9 for the first time. I'm trying to import data in a very irregular format, and shape it into something I can work with. It's not working. The data records the number of butterflies caught by each collector in each village in PNG. E.g. Date YR Collector Town Q P TR 26 August 19...
