Hi Steve,

The Wfsave funtion exports dates in the dd/mm/yyyy format. Is there a way to change this to yyyyqq format?

Thanks.

Create an alpha series in the workfile that has the date with the date format you want (use @datestr(@date, "YYYYQQ")). Then save that with the other series.

Hi,

Is it possible to change the sheet name via writing code in EViews? or the mode = update function is applicable only with the default name in excel?
