Hello,
Hope all well.
For some reason, Eviews doesn't pull the already available February data via the attached .prg into the attached .wf. To check if the data is available I downloaded the data also into Excel and got this:
Start Date 18.01.2021
End Date 18.01.2022
MPMIDEMA Index
#N/A Requesting Data...
Dates BN_SURVEY_MEDIAN
31.01.2021 57
28.02.2021 56.5
Thanks a lot for your help.
Best,
Günter

Re: Bloomberg data download with special tickers
Unfortunately, we do currently do not have access to Bloomberg. We are working on re-obtaining access but in the meantime we cannot tell internally what exactly is occurring.
Until we do get access, can you modify your program to create a daily workfile and then attempt to fetch the series. If you see values for the beginning of February 2021, I suspect the series is being brought in as a daily and then due the frequency conversion method, the month of February is converted to NA.
Assuming the above is true, try specifying a conversion method in the fetch command that ignores NAs. For example,
More information on setting the conversion method can be found here http://www.eviews.com/help/helpintro.html#page/content/commandcmd-fetch.html

Code: Select all
fetch(d=bbg,link, c=a) "mpmidema index" "mpmidema Index BN_SURVEY_MEDIAN"
