Just a follow up: I am not able to post everything publicly - but I eventually found I had a typo in one of the variable names in one of the equations. That was messing the whole thing up.

no red text at all

all it has is a list of my equations and nothing else

What is the best way to go about trying to figure out why I get the error message "The model contains errors and could not be complied"?

it is happening at this statement:

StateModelF.ADDASSIGN(v) @all

Thank You!!

One more thing - what if I wanted to start reading in data with the fourth column?

If I am importing excel data, how do I include in the import statement that there are 7 header lines? Also, if my excel files does not have variable names in the header can I include the list of variables in order in the import statement? right now I have: import(type=excel) "H:\model\Data\inpu...

figured out that I had a problem with how the N/A's were written i excel... once I fixed that it worked fine.

Will be switching over to import statements, thanks!

I get this error message: Error: 7 is an illegal or reserved name in "READ(t=xls, c3, na=na, s=q) "C:\model\Sales\Stocks.xls" 7" for this statement: READ(t=xls, c3, na=na, s=q) "C:\model\Sales\Stocks.xls" 7 I'm having trouble figuring out what is wrong because previousl...

Is there an easy way to rename quarters and years in an existing workfile. I have data already read in that is quarterly. After doing some initial calculations, I want to reallocate the data so that data for 1990 Quarter 1 becomes the data for 1990 Quarter 2; 1990Q2 becomes 1990Q3; 1990Q3 becomes 19...

That works - thank you!

I have a program that worked in eviews 4, trying to get everything working in eviews 7. The problem I have is when I write a file to excel and want the name to reflect the list that has the variables currently being written, I try the following: FOR %j ListA ListB WRITE(t=xls, a2, nodates, names) &q...

I believe I have my equations fixed so they are not explosive, however, now my model won't even solve, I get the error message "Solver has stalled: starting values may be too far from a solution".
Any ideas on where I can start to try and fix it?
Thanks so much for your help!

Thank you!
I think there is a problem with the equations so I am currently working on re-estimating them. I also am not sure what the option o=m means (I am trying to rework some old programs that were written by someone else - that can partly explain my cluelessness.....:-)

I am running Eviews 7. I have built a model and the program runs fine with no errors and I get forecast values for all of the variable for which I have appended equations to the model. ModelA.SOLVE(M=5000, C=.001, D=d, S=d, N=t, O=m) The problem is that for about 1/3 to 1/2 of the variables that evi...

Thank you. Sorry, I was missing brackets around a %k in the following code when I defined the variables so they were not numerical values. FOR !k = 3 to VarList1.@count %k = VarList1.@seriesname(!k) GENR {%k}_0 = {%k} NEXT One more question, in the code above, when it makes the variable {%k}_0, it o...
