Dear EVIEWS team
I use Eviews 11, Sept 2019 built, 64 bit
@addquotes gives an error message
Error.png

when applied to alpha series, while @stripquote does (See example code below)
Best,
mamo

Code: Select all

wfcreate  a 2000 2010
string hello="Hello"
string hello_addq=@addquotes(hello)
show hello_addq
alpha ahello="""Hello"""
' while @stripquotes works with alpha series ...
alpha ahello_strpq=@stripquotes(ahello)
' ... @addquotes doesn't (following yielding error msg)
alpha ahello_addq=@addquotes(ahello_strpq)
