Sorting data from earliest to oldest

Postby anhkhoa_lpt » Wed Jul 30, 2014 9:06 pm

Hi all,
I have a excel file which sorting from earliest to oldest. So it's unconventional for me to copy and paste it to eviews (I usually resort in excel then copy to eviews, but this way takes me a lot of time). I want to know the code in eviews to fix this problem. Thanks a lot :)

I'm not sure I understand the problem.

If you open an Excel file in EViews (by dragging the file on to EViews, using File->Open, or by copy and pasting into a new workfile), EViews doesn't care what order the observations are in.

You can change the view of a series or group in EViews to sort the observations the other way by opening that series or group and clicking the Sort button.
