Better to endogenously pull out the wf name - cleaner: subroutine frequencytab(alpha inputalpha) %wfnameholder = @wfname freeze(inputalpha_tab) inputalpha.freq(nocum,nolimit) !numberunique=@rows(@uniquevals(inputalpha)) wfcreate(wf=frequencytabulated) u !numberunique copy {%wfnameholder}::inputalpha...

See subject. E.g adding legend: amountandfreq_bar.setelem(1) "legend(Amount To Supplier)" amountandfreq_bar.setelem(2) "legend(# Payments to Supplier)" should naturally be: amountandfreq_bar.setelem(1) legend("Amount To Supplier (Left)") amountandfreq_bar.setelem(2) leg...

Answer to 1: Just one equation. The first variable that you 'click' will always be your dependent variable. I.E. highlight your inflation series, then hold CTRL and highlight unemployment, and right click --> estimate equation ---> inflation is your "Y" variable because you clicked it firs...

Probably don't want to do it in reverse to estimate a VAR with 11 observations hey Steve

I'd like to emphasize support for this brilliant add-in. Thanks to the creator indeed!

Dear All, I have encountered a strange bug over the last couple of years but I thought I'd mention it at last. When working on multiple monitors and have a .prg open in the EVIEWS IDE which is not on the 'primary' screen, some of the text fails to dynamically update(?) and you have to drag a mouse o...

Is there any way to set maximum alpha length on the fly? That would be super useful.

Charlie

now it is possible: subroutine frequencytab(alpha inputalpha) freeze(inputalpha_tab) inputalpha.freq(nocum,nolimit) !numberunique=@rows(@uniquevals(inputalpha)) wfcreate(wf=frequencytabulated) u !numberunique copy alldatasets::inputalpha_tab frequencytabulated::inputalpha_tab alpha uniquevalues = &q...

I'm halfway through writing an add-in which provides some alternative options for tabulating. I'll see where I get to with this, but do you have any other requests or suggestions that you would want to see incorporated?

Charlie

Couldn't help but query if that Edit was serious or not... I've written papers/coursework using EViews, Stata, JMulti, Ox, Matlab, RATs, Python, Java, Gauss, Scala,..., you name it - pretty much anything you'd want to use for applied economics. EViews is surely the least 'tough' and most accessible ...

I second this suggestion.

Dear All,

Is it possible to order the series.freq (one way tabulation) by count rather than alphabetically by alpha name?

Thanks!

Charlie

Dear All, I have a problem I can't figure out a solution to - hopefully you can help! I'm opening a large number of csv/xls/xlsx files in a loop as workfiles using the wfopen command. However, in some of the raw files, a variable exists, and in some, it does not. In my case, this variable is a regis...

This seems like a great add-in and is super useful - something that I'm sure lots of central bankers especially will be happy to see! However, the favar.prg is encrypted and its hard to know what the program is actually doing. Can I also suggest that a future version of the program cleans up after i...

This is a wonderfully useful addin. If you have considered writing an add-in for the Canova Hansen test (possibly based on the R package ndiffs), please feel free to send me a PM, as it's something I'd be keen to collaborate on.

Best wishes!
