Hi,
I need to estimate a system of 33 equations using the SUR method. How many coefficients at most are allowed by Eviews? I have 24 coefficients per equation (this is because I have 8 coefficients for each equation that are to be estimated with 2 unknown common breakpoints - that is, over 3 sub-periods), and this makes 792 coefficients in all. This seems to be excessive because I have error messages.
Thank you for clarifying this.

Use a coefficient vector other than C. C has a maximum of 740, but any other coefficient vector has practically unlimited size.

That's good news! Thanks a lot!

How do you do that? I mean use a coefficient vector other than c?
I tried this but it doesn't recognize the vector g.

vector (860) g

!j2 = !j1 + 1
!j3 = !j2 + 1
!j4 = !j3 + 1
!j5 = !j4 + 1
!j6 = !j5 + 1
