Hi there, I am looking for general help and may be posting in the wrong forum. Please let me know if I should post elsewhere on the site. I am building a daily forecast model of retail sales: The daily sales are impacted by: Day of the Week Day of the Month (the sales are to customers that become mo...

What would be the most efficient way to import a text file data table into EViews that is constructed the following way: 45 columns = weekly dates 78,000 rows = observations of data by a listing ID I'm having trouble with the fact that the data is transposed from the way that is easily readable into...

I believe that I have figured it out, you may ignore this thread :D

As a followup, I did try and use the @mid function on the current string to create a new string with a new name to use inside the loop, but EViews would not allow me to use the function on the string.

Hello, I am using strings to create a vector of variables that are run as separate dependent variables in separate regressions that are restimated and forecast. The problem I am running into is that the variables have a code key at the beginning that must be used in the original string creation. But...

Ahh ok, thanks

Is there any way to have variables in the step-wise least squares regression be rejected based on sign(+/-) of the estimated variable coefficient?

Oops, figured this one out. Ignore

Thank you!

I noticed that EViews is reading blanks from my XLS input file as zeros. Is there any way to have them read in as NA or something that would allow regressions to be run without being biased by the zero values?

This appears to work for all of the commands in my program with the exception of the WRITE command. The name of the output xls file ended up including %mystr , possibly because the name of the file was in quotes and enclosed the {%mystr} Is there any way around this? I'd like to write a new csv file...

Great, thanks!

I have a program that uses a specific word string in the options section of wfopen, in the range command in the wfopen line, in the close command, in the wfcreate command, in the group command, in the write command, in the pagesave command, and in the wfsave command For example: wfopen(wf=Alpha) &qu...

I am working with about 300 series. The input files are xlsx files (with 300 columns) and are being read in correctly using wfcreate. After the EViews program ends, I would like to export the adjusted series to a similar format, i.e. 300 columns, Using the write command with excel, the program runs ...

Excellent.

Sending code from a phone... whatever you get paid, they should double it.
