Ah, I think I get what the problem is coming from.

Hi there, I'm getting a problem with @makevalidname. It cleans the original string as expected, but it adds an "01" at the end of string returned. For example: string cleanName = @makevalidname("CSR#(USWOGGG%R,N)") is returning "CSR__USWOGGG_R_N_01" even though eviews a...

Will do, thank you!

Hi there, I'm using Eviews 13. I've noticed that upon using the command fetch(d=Datastream) %Mnemonic, I'm being returned series that are lagged, and as such I'm missing the final year in the sample. For instance, fetch(d=Datastream) BRWOGDP%R, which is real gdp growth for Brazil from IMF WEO, is re...

Hi,

Just a follow-up, Eviews is also crashing when I try to freeze graphs.

Would somebody help me with these crashes ?

Thanks!

Hi there,

I'm using Eviews 12, Entreprise edition (18/10/2023 patch installed). It crashes everytime I try to use the Quick Help Reference in the Help menu (see image attached).

Thanks!

Quite simple! Thank you for the suggestion. I've implemented it in a for loop for the remaining countries. The backward filling (staring from later date and moving back up to first date) proved a bit more challenging. I've implemented with a while loop: smpl @all series cg_{%country}_{%pays} = {%1}_...

Thanks for the quick reply, Gareth. Please find a sample wf attached. I've grouped the series I would like to merge for China and Chile as an example. It contains stock of reserves (% GDP) for a few countries, from two different sources. For China, the series cg_rsrvsa_chn starts only in 2004Q4. I w...

Hi there, I would like to merge two series, backward from an unspecified date. The first series have missing observations up to a date that can vary per country and variable. I would like to backfill these observations based on the rate of change of a 2nd series. The difficulty for me lies in gettin...

Wow, awesome! Very handy indeed! Thanks very much for the help.

Hello Gareth, I'll try to make it more clear. In the page Zap_cg I got stacked qtly data in "datavalue". I'm unstacking into a new q page (not shown in the file I've sent), using "serie_name" as the id: pageunstack(page=q,namepat =*_?) serie_name start_date @ datavalue In the pag...

Hello Gareth, Thanks for your reply. I'm a bit loss on how to use setattr on stacked data. Could you take a look at my file and tell me how for instance to add the alpha values "target_desc" to the attribute "display name" for each country series? The series id are in "serie...

Hello Gareth, I got a follow-up question: how can I add metadata to the series' fields "display name" and "description" when the data is unstacked? The metadata are available in the workfile as string (stacked). Please find the code I'm working with below. Many thanks, Mara %QUER...

Thank you Gareth! It works.

Hello, I'm trying to unstack a dataset from SQL, but the data remains a string (instead of a "time series") when I use the unstack command. Could you please take a look on my code? I've attached the workfile and the code follows here: wfopen(type=odbc, timeout=400, wf=temp) zap_beta {%QUER...
