Copy multiple graphs to word

Postby yiagos » Tue Feb 08, 2011 2:36 pm

Is there a quick way to copy multiple graph objects from an eviews workfile to MS Word or something similar. Is there for example a way to group all the graphs so you can copy them at once?

Print them into an RTF file, then open the RTF file in Word and copy.

Or, open all your graphs as one multi-graph in EViews (just select them all, right click and select open), then copy the multi-graph into Word.

Hello Yiagos

I use the method Gareth suggested & does the tick

place the following syntax some where in your program (i usually place it right after i finish graphing my chart for consistency sake)

yourchartname.save(t=rtf) Z:\somepath\yourchartname

this will save your chart as an rtf file and place it in a designated location ... you may need to open that file and re-orient the page if your chart is too big etc. but this is a minor detail.

alternatively you use the same line of code to save your chart with .EMF, .WMF, .EPS, .BMP, .GIF, .JPEG, or .PNG extensions. Just relace the "rtf" in the code above with any of the following extentions. After that you can open a word document and "insert picture"

hope this helps

Wes
