Re: Dummies for day of the week, month and year
You can't give a series a name starting with a number. Call it Y2009 instead. Thank you, that worked. Regarding the "no reason to do this", if the day of the week, month or year can make variables to have a different behavior towards the dependent variable, isn't it a reason to this kind ...

Re: Import hourly data - workfile
Unfortunately not. You could create an alpha series containing the format you want (something like alpha a = @datestr(@date, "DD/MM/YYYY") + " " + @str(@hour+1)), then structure the workfile as undated by id series, where that alpha is the id series. But once you've done that, E...

Re: Import hourly data - workfile
I'm not sure I follow the issue... It seems like EViews is putting the data in the correct place. Are you just worried about the labeling of the hours? The observation labeled as: 01/01/2009 00:00 Has a value of 0.801182 for series A. That observation is the time between midnight and 1am (00:00 and...

If dated, try doing sequential (assuming your file has the same number of rows as the workfile etc...)
I've tried to do a sequential read import but everything stays the same.

Re: Import hourly data - workfile
How are you doing the import? Dear Gareth Thanks for your answer. After creating the workfile I import my data going "import from file" and then chose my excel. I've tried to upload an excel with both the date and hour columns and other without those columns. Either way I can't manage to ...

Re: Merge graphs
If you're talking, for example, about graphs of variables, you can open those variables as a group and then open the graph as you are used to do.

I'm a student in Economics at Universidade da Beira Interior (Portugal) and for one of my classes I need to reproduce a already existent article in...
