Re: Excel COM - Get Workfile path

The Excel data links that our add-in creates are simply OLEDB data connections. The add-in just helps you create these. Once created, the link is maintained and updated by Excel. If you access the connection string property of your OLEDB connection object, you can parse it to find the full path to t...

Re: EViews 9 copy bug? - (c=c) i.e. cubic spline interpolation

Well I looked into the FETCH captured command and it wasn't generating the correct conversion option. I've changed this so the next patch should fix it. This means if you manually COPY an object in the database window, then do a PASTE special into a workfile window, then in the dialog select a speci...

Re: EViews 9 copy bug? - (c=c) i.e. cubic spline interpolation

Sorry, but I need a few more details. When you performed the fetch, did you do it to a workfile with a matching frequency or did you do it to a higher frequency workfile? Then how did you manually do the frequency conversion afterwards? Was there another workfile page with the target frequency invol...

Re: EViews 9 copy bug? - (c=c) i.e. cubic spline interpolation

Were you performing a fetch when you did the conversion, or were you converting a series object already in your workfile to another page with a higher frequency?

Re: EViews 9 copy bug? - (c=c) i.e. cubic spline interpolation

Oh, one other note. If you see that our documentation is missing something, with EViews 9 you can simply refer to the captured command after going thru the associated dialog. In this example, if you performed a manual copy operation and chose Cubic Match First for the up conversion, you'd see the c=...

Re: EViews 9 copy bug? - (c=c) i.e. cubic spline interpolation

Not sure how we missed this in our documentation, but here's the info you asked for:

For cubic spline match first, use the following:

Code: Select all

c=cubicf


For cubic spline match last, you can use either

Code: Select all

c=cubicl

or

Code: Select all

c=c


I'll notify our documentation team about the missing info.

Re: COM Automation exception handling

Usually an exception is thrown by EViews Automation. The exception has to be caught and if you check the message portion of the exception it will contain the same error message. Most COM client environments support this exception handling. If you'd like more specific help, let me know what your COM ...

Re: Importing Rdata files

By the way, I tried to get statconnDCOM working with the latest version of 32-bit R 3.3.1 and it doesn't seem to work. It's possible the free version of statconnDCOM has not been updated to work the 3.3.x. If you're having trouble with the same R version, try v3.2.3 instead. I confirmed that is work...

Re: Data input: READ, IMPORT

As an aside, maybe we should start warning our users when they use deprecated commands in their programs. Not sure where we would show that though -- maybe the program log window (if there is one).

Re: Data input: READ, IMPORT

If you manually drag the spreadsheet onto EViews, and use our Import wizard to perform the import, it will generate an IMPORT command in the capture window for you to use in your programs with all the proper settings.

Re: Excel Add-in "Get Data" Function

It's not controlled by our addin. Our addin is actually just a wrapper to our OLEDB provider which provides data to Excel. The actual import and placement of the data is controlled by Excel so you should look in their support documents to see if there's any way to import OLEDB data as transposed. St...

Re: Timeout on http request via wfopen

Currently there is no way to increase the timeout for WFOPEN URL calls. It's something we should definitely add in the future. My only suggestion would be to open the page fully in your browser, then save it as a static HTML file on your desktop. Then use a file reference to the html file in your WF...
