Multi-year frequency conversion

[alet]

Hi guys,

I have a panel and i'm trying to change its frequency from Annual to 5-year average (that is, creating a new page with different frequency). [Eviews 7.2]

so far, i've been trying the following:

Code: Select all

pagecreate(idcross, page=NEW) cn @range(5Y, 1980, 2005) @srcpage Finanz_oecd_reduced3

where "cn" is my cross-sect ID in "Finanz_oecd_reduced3" source page.

This works fine manually through the menu (Workfile page create by ID) as it allows to set "Multi-Year" and then to pick the year interval.
However, setting up a frequency through the @range() command, always ends up giving the same yearly frequency.
Any suggestions? any alternative codes?
Many thanks
