Hello,
I'm afraid we're going to need more information. The single code line you've shared would seem fine for creating a 1/na dummy series based on the contents of the AGES series. What other code isn't working?

Re: rename with wildcard code
Hello,
A recent patch unfortunately introduced a bug into wildcard handling. The next EViews patch will correct the issue.

Re: parameter initialisation
Hello,
Ordered models have an extra degree of freedom I believe, so this may be an instance of the dummy variable trap. Try @expand(var01, @droplast) instead.

Re: Working of the model.control function
Hello, Just to clarify, in EViews' terminology recursive blocks are those in which the endogenous variables are related only via unidirectional dependencies, e.g. X = f(Y) and Y = f(Z). In contrast, simultaneous blocks include bidirectional dependencies (direct or indirect), e.g., X = f(Y) and Y = f...

Re: Model contains errors and could not be compiled.
Hello,
That error usually indicates a syntactic problem with the model specification, e.g., a syntax error in one of the model's equations. You should be able to locate the problem equation(s) by examining the model's equation view, where such errors will be highlighted in red.

Re: how to drop a program variable
Hello, I'm afraid there isn't a way to undefine a variable such that it won't trigger substitution later in an EViews program. However, since you're running multiple programs sequentially, you can isolate the individual programs' variables from one another by using "exec" instead of "...

Re: Problem with include in if-statement
Hello, Just a little extra information about include statements that might help in the future, such statements are functionally equivalent to copying the EViews code from the included file into the including file at the inclusion point. Consequently, the program will be ill-formed if the included fi...

Re: Problem with model solve - Missing data
Hello,
Are you trying to solve the model over the entire period (2000-2024) or just the forecast period (2021-2024)?

Re: How to correctly define user-specified matrix/vector to obtain the desired IRFs after estimating a VAR
Hello, Regarding (1), you're follow-up is correct. The shocks are structural shocks and by construction the structural residuals have an identity covariance matrix. A one unit structural shock and one S.D. structural shock are therefore identical, and can be interpreted directly as the columns of th...

Re: How to correctly define user-specified matrix/vector to obtain the desired IRFs after estimating a VAR
Hello, Just for the sake of a complete example here in my response, let me address your questions using a trivial artificial VAR. Regarding (1), matrix/vector you must specify holds the shocks in its column(s), with the rows representing the different variables. For the basic Cholesky decomposition,...

Hello, Regarding (1) and (2), here's a quick program that verifies that the S and F matrices behave as expected for a trivial artificial SVAR. If you run the last four statements for your own SVAR, do the results not match the mentioned expectations? create u 100 series x = rnd series y = 2 * x + nr...

Re: How to obtain the matrix connecting reduced-form and structural residuals in a VAR
Quite right. Either of the first two SVAR restriction presets will produce an S matrix equivalent to a Cholesky decomposition.
