is there a way for me to add years to this within the loop?

existing
smpl {%FirstActual} {%LastActual} if newmsa=allmsa(!j)

desired
smpl {%FirstActual}+1yr {%LastActual}+1yr if newmsa=allmsa(!j)

another file needed for equations to run.

I have 436 regions with 184 observations each I'm trying to forecast. When I include the MA term I get an error saying they're not supported in panel data. I'm only interested in getting the forecasted values for each each region. Not anything to do with panel data. Is there a workaround? Like maybe...

what i meant is why are the standard errors not automatically adjusted? what is being calculated by default?

why doesn't eviews do this automatically? what's the point of displaying the confidence intervals if they're not correct?

ok. insert this and run it. compare the results to what you see in the eq_1 forecast graph. they don't match.

series ci_up=(cdq_pct_se*2)+cdq_pct_saf
series ci_down=cdq_pct_saf-(cdq_pct_se*2)

did my own calc in excel using the se's.

the eviews se's are incorrect. they're only correct when ex: dep=dep(-1) and forecasting dep.

incorrect when ex: log(dep)=log(dep(-1)) and forecasting dep.

ch22 is bs. smells of bug to me.

took a look.

however, my quetsion has not been answered. the se's should match. why doesn't output +/-2 se match ci?

looks like bug to me.

so i fit and forecast this equation and output the standard errors.

my question is why doesn't the forecasted value +/- 2 se equal the confidence intervals shown when i click the eq_1 object and click forecast?

i tried both: saving to a directory with a upper case letter in it and saving to a directory with all lower case. it still doesn't save when it has an upper case letter in the directory name (with the default samba settings). this is what my guy had to say about your post. Do this mean anything to y...

we flipped the setting back and did some tests this works \\Sac-psas-01\econ\riskindex\Test.prg but this still won't work. \\Sac-psas-01\econ\Riskindex\Test.prg my guy says if you have any other suggestions on settings in samba he could try them but they usually just leave everything on the defaults.

also interesting when i try to name the file with caps it saves it in all lower case.

this one works

\\Sac-psas-01\econ\riskindex\test


these ones don't work

\\Sac-psas-01\econ\riskindex\Test

\\Sac-psas-01\econ\riskindex\tEst

let us know if you patch it. my guy doesn't think the setting will impact anything else but wasn't 100% sure. thanks.

yes it's just a unix server.

i talked to my unix guy and he fixed it. he changed the case sensetive setting in samba. it works now.

i work for the same company as eviewsnew and am having the same problem. i've found one pattern that seems to be a bug. eviews is unable to save a program file to a directory that has a capital letter in it. this seems to be specific to UNIX SAS server. eviews will save a program file to a shares si...
