working on multiple workfile

I understand that you said the length of series for a workfile should be same. So here is the issue with working with different workfile. 1. If I have two or more different excel files which I'll import into Eviews, can they be in the same workfile? or can never even if the length and structure is t...

Re: .X12 seasonal adjustment function

I c. I'm doing it in SAS. Another question, when I export series with WFSAVE, if the series names are area_0, area_1, ....area_300. And I need to export only the first 256 series to one .csv file (limit) and the rest into a second group, how do I name those series in abbreviation but not listing all...

Re: .X12 seasonal adjustment function

Got your point, thanks! But a data transformation question here: If I have this dataset from excel in 10 rows with each row as a region having 100 collumns of econ data for each quarter starting from 1980Q1, after I import it into Eviews, how can I transform it to the series you mentioned for the .X...

.X12 seasonal adjustment function

Hi, I don't know how this .X12 seasonal adjustment works. Basically, in implementation, 1. does it matter if the data frequency is quarterly or mothly or annual? do I have to have a series to indicate its frequency? 2. if I have a 10*100 matrix, with each of the 10 rows representing a region and 100...

Re: wfsave ?

When you use WFSAVE, the entire workfile will be saved under what ever filename you choose to give it (see the Command Reference for more information on WFSAVE). By default, WFSAVE will save the file as an EViews workfile, and all objects in all pages in the workfile (groups, series, equations, mat...

Re: wfopen for dated panel data

Could you post the file? I have two collumns in this file indicating about date. One is called time in the format of 1990Q1, another is a modified time variable for our own internal use, with a name yearqq and in the format of 1990.125. I removed the 1990.125 format variable yearqq, and now runs th...

Re: my SAVE and SAVEAS function don't work

I reinstalled my Eviews7, the issue is still there. I find that, this issue only happens with the files saved on my SAS server. I can open a file from File->open, and then when I try to save it (save or save as), it says "unable to open file ". It may be about the system setup. Any clue to...

Re: work on different workfile

You shouldn't use READ, rather you should use IMPORT. Thanks for the quick reply! I tried import, first of all, it doesn't accept the full path of the server folder, and I still need to use my drive letter: import(t=txt) "W:\riskindex\RI_V3.1\code\main\All384MSA.csv" Second, it asks for t...
