Re: Is there an equivalent to the nlcom command (Stata) or the Delta method integrated into EViews?

There is sort of a kludge to do this. After estimating an equation do View/Coefficient diagnostics/Wald test.

Then enter the nonlinear formula you're interested in, like c(1)/c(2) = 0. You get the value of the formula, the standard error, and the t-statistic.

Re: Illegal date when importing txt file

Some of the dates look like 201001. Is there a good way to handle that?

Re: Illegal date when importing txt file

If it helps, I get the same error you do. But if I use File/Open it appears to work. No idea why.

Re: Illegal date when importing txt file

If you could post that last row in the text file there's better chance someone might catch what's wrong.

Re: Header row in Excel file written by R

Yes. Suggesting R is doing something not quite standard. If it's easy to catch, would be nice if EViews handled it.

Header row in Excel file written by R

Not clear this is exactly an EViews bug...but...

If you read in an Excel file using write_xlsx() EViews will not pick up the variable names in the header row. Quite possibly something not quite right at the R end.

Re: wfcreate

The point is that the command defaults to setting the save type as wf1. It probably should not. Much as I am personally fond of the wf1 file format, it is rather dated.

wfcreate

The command

Code: Select all

wfcreate(wf = foo) u 100
creates a workfile of type wf1 even when the default is set to wf2.

Re: Endogenous and Exogenous variables

Autocorrelation and heteroskedasticity have nothing to do with endogeneity.

You almost certainly cannot estimate both equations by OLS.

Re: mtos

Maybe a better error message, but I was surprised I couldn't replace the object with a new one.

mtos

Code: Select all

mtos(x,xx)
works fine, but

Code: Select all

mtos(x,x)
gives an error message

MTOS cannot convert a series/group to a matrix/vector

Re: Generating lagged variables for panel data

When I try, I get the correct NAs. What version are you using? Can you post a short example?
