Kernel density data from a vector

[DBW]

Hi there,

I'm trying to do something that I think should be relatively simple, but can't work out how to do it. Very grateful for any help.

I have a long vector of data, which I'm trying to transform into a kernel density distribution. I can plot a kernel density chart without any problem, but can't seem to extract the underlying data to recreate that chart.

The vector is longer than the number of observations I have in the workfile, so converting the vector into a timeseries and then extracting the distribution doesn't seem to be an option.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Create a new page the size of the vector, copy the vector over, convert to a series, then extract the data.

Thanks, Gareth.

I'll give that a go. Really appreciate the speedy response.
