Re: Import multiple files automatically
Hi Gareth, I have another small issue that I can't get my head around: I built up the list of names as follows: 'build up list of names for %s "ask_price_" "ask_size" "bid_price_" "bid_size_ " for !i=1 to !levels %names = %names + %s + @str(!i) + " "...

Re: Import multiple files automatically
Hi Gareth, an additional question: I am trying to extend the code to import similar files into a separate workfile page (as EViews does when I manually select "Create new page" in Step 4 of the import dialogue window), but I can't find the command for this in the command reference, only th...

Re: Import multiple files automatically
Hi Gareth,
I can't find the command reference for EViews 7 online, only the ones for 5 and 6, but it appears that the functions you used are not included in 5 and 6 (I'm using 7.1 myself) - any idea where to find that?

Re: Import multiple files automatically
Hi Gareth,
thanks a lot for your help, this seems to work perfectly. However, it is a bit of a black box to me and I don't fully understand what EViews is doing here exactly. I can't find any info on WDIR or WCOUNT in the command reference, is there any further information on those commands?

Import multiple files automatically
Hi everyone, I am trying to get EViews to import multiple files into the same workfile using a loop that accounts for changing filenames and dynamically names colums, if possible. I have files with automatically created filenames according to the rule "NAME_YYYYMMDD_levels#". My goal is to...
