Re: Eviews - Copy Precision Annoys
For me 2.836066 is fine. I do not need 2.836066169871948 even when copying it to MS Excel. I wonder what do you do with the 0.000000169871948 part? :D I am already imagining our Chief Economist comming to my office screaming that my US GDP Growth forcast was wrong by 0.000000169871948. :D

Re: Find Maximum in a Table
Perfect! After I added the "@val" it works perfectly!!! Thanks agian. Btw. I expted that you say that my program to find MAX is crap, but did not happen. :) Is the program more less how it's done? I quickly came out with this solution and it seems to work, but I always considered it a bit ...

Re: Eviews - Copy Precision Annoys
Just put an option into Options where I could define that every time I CTRL C something, it will be "formated", "unformated", or "Eviews will ask". Seems easy, isn't it? How about the Dialog Box that pops up when I press "Run" in a program? It's called "R...

Find Maximum in a Table
I have this program to find a maximum in column 1 with 5 rows, and finally highlight the maximum yellow: 'find highest values for !i=1 to 5 !r=0 for !j=1 to 5 if table_a(!i,1)>=table_a(!j,1) then !r=!r+1 endif next if !r=5 then exitloop endif next table_a.setfillcolor(!i,1) yellow Problem: It works ...

Eviews - Copy Precision Annoys
If I CTRL C a figure from the result, Eviews puts up a dialog window on copy precision, which slows my work - as it constantly pops up when I CTRL C something. If I want to quickly CTRL C and CTRL V a few numbers from the Eviews results to MS Excel, this constantly bothering dialog box will prolong ...

Re: Record Schwarz, Akaike, HQ
Thanks for that. Is it possible to calculate the position of a minimum in a table column in EViews? Such as in the example of a table below, the program would find that row 2 is a minimum for colum 2 (AIC): X [AIC] [SC] [HQC] 1 [2.1] [2.7] [1.9] 2 [2.0] [2.5] [1.4] 3 [2.2] [2.7] [1.5] 4 [2.3] [2.8] ...

Re: Record Schwarz, Akaike, HQ
Everything works now. As a final step,let's say that column 2 of the table represents the Schwarz Criterion: I would like to select the minium of that column 2. and set it to yellow. How do I find the minimum (!r,2) in a table colum 2? mytable.setfillcolor(!r,2) yellow P.S. This is a minor, but is t...

Re: Record Schwarz, Akaike, HQ
Gareth, your advice is perfect as always. I followed the instruction, and create a very simpel program without even using the loops. For reference to this question I am posting the program below. 'create vector to store r-squares matrix(10,3) comparison 'create empty equation to be used inside the l...

Record Schwarz, Akaike, HQ
I am running various regressions and comparing the SC, AC, HQC of the regressions. I always need to write the SC, AC, HC on a paper and after run again and do it again. Alternatively I could freeze the output of 10 regressions and compare it like that. You can see it is not efficient. How could I cr...

VAR Impulse Function: One STD. Deviation
In the “Impulse tab” of the VAR impulse function: I figured out that the "Residual – One Unit" option corresponds to a shock matrix [1,0]T (based on the ordering of the varialbes in the VAR). However, it is not clear to me what does "Residual - One Std. Deviation" refer to? If I ...

Re: How to close a program
Thanks, "exec" does exactly what I want, and I can now even run it directly from the Add-In menu; I love Eviews.

Re: How to close a program
I have similar issue. I have a program to recalculate some series. When I run the program (e.g. run program_a), it recalculates my series, but leaves the "program window" open on the screen. I just need my series updated, I do not need the whole program window opened on the screen. So each...

Re: Standard Deviation, Average, and Z-Values
Gareth, thanks this works perfect. I need to run the colde below every week or month for a number of series in the same exact format. Is there a simple way how to automatize the update? The way I imagine this could work is that I would write something like "run z_update" and it runs the co...

Re: Standard Deviation, Average, and Z-Values
I do know that I can find these stats in descriptive statistics of the series. But I am not going to do descriptive statistics, and the write the figures for average and st. deviation on a paper, and then generate the series by rewriting these stats into the formula from the paper. I have to do do t...

Standard Deviation, Average, and Z-Values
I have a time-series A, and I want to get the average and st-deviation of series A to calculate a new series Z-A with z-values of series A. How do I do it in Eviews? This is what I wanna do: Z_A(i)=[A(i) - average(A)] / standard deviation (A) or simply Z_A = [A - average (A)] / standard deviation (A...
