Error correction Mechanism help

Hi, I ran the engle granger test on the following equation TB=b0+b1ER+b2Y+b3Y* I found the error term to be stationary indicating there is cointegration with the variables. Now I need to run the ECM for the Engle-Granger but I don't know how to do so in EViews. Can someone please write down the step...
