Dear Eviews team,
{%seriesname}.@attr("name") provides the name of the series.
@attr also allows for obtaining the values of custom attributes of a series that the user has defined herself.
However, to my knowledge there is no way to read the history of a series within a program.
(I know that @description, @displayname, @name, @updatetime, @source, @remarks are implemented as individual data member of series)
Suggestion:
add a data member "@history" to the set of data members of the series object.
Suggestion 2, preferred:
allow all attributes of a series to be approached in a consistent manner with the @attr data member, i.e.: {%seriesname}.@attr("history"), {%seriesname}.@attr("name"), {%seriesname}.@attr("description"), {%seriesname}.@attr("source"), etc.
Kind regards,
mamo

Dear Eviews team,
many thanks, your suggested solution works
(I tried this before Iwrote the post, but it seems I must have made a mistake)
