Hi, Is there any way to display help for a subroutine ? So that the programmer can write some lines of code to explain how to use it (especially the type and nb of arguments). I'm looking for something similar to Matlab : > help(addition) >>> addition computes the sum of two scalars. >>> Syntax : ad...

Ok thanks for your quickreply !
Btw, I think there is clearly something with EViews and lengthy variable names !

Hi, I've a strange error in EViews. I've a VAR and I'm doing forecast on a rolling window. The code line is var_diesel_gas.forecast v{!ii} with !ii going from 0 to a number lower than 100. However I've the following error : 'VAR forecast name suffix must be 3 characters or less in "DO_ VAR_DIES...

Many thanks Gareth !

Hi, I'm wondering if it exists something like : myEquation.setformat f.xx for equation output so that coefficient, R-squared, etc. only have a specific number of decimals. I've tried coef(2) cc cc.serformat f.3 equation eq1.ls myTs = cc(1)+cc(2)*myTS(-1) But this is not working, the output of the eq...

Hi Jason,

Before that I was working with Patch 04/05/2016.

The window that opens afer executing dbopen(t=fredv1) fred is exactly entitled "FRED Database v1:FRED - (fredv1)". Doing a query with "Easy Query" leads to the same error (ie : Database Error: FRED library error: 'Host could not be resolved') I do not have any FRED entry in my Da...

Hi Jason, Thanks for your help. I'm indeed highly suspicious that the problem comes from my side with IT blocking some ports for applications (it had happened in the past). I can not opened the link because of the apikey, error is the following : <error code="400" message="Bad Request...

Ok thanks for your reply Steve !

Hello,

I'm importing data from an html table using wfopen. Unfortunately, the request is quite long since the website's response is slow.
It seems that EViews is cancelling the request before the website succeeds in responding. Thus, is there any way to increase timeout ?
Thanks a lot

Hi,

I'm wondering why I get the following error : "D is an illegal or reserved name" when typing :

Is it because "d" belongs to the series world instead of the scalar world ?
Thanks !

Ok, thanks for your quick reply.

Hi, I want to fill a vector with number of the last observation of timeseries I'm doing : vector(2) myVector myVector.fill @ilast(myTs1), @ilast(myTs2) But I got the error :"@ILAST is not a Genr or series expression function." Doing : vector(2) myVector !nb1 = @ilast(myTs1) !nb2 = @ilast(m...

Hi,
I'm reopening this thread to find out if this is now possible.
I'm using EViews 9.5
Thanks a lot
