Pagecontract NAs

Postby paues » Thu Apr 04, 2013 8:06 am

In EViews 8, is there any easy way to contract a page so that the sample only includes periods for which there is at least one observation?

One observation in a particular series, or all series?

Any series. That is, if the page range originally is 1900 1910 and there are two series, one dating from 1901 to 1905 and the other from 1904 to 1909, then I would like for the page range to be 1901 1909 after the contraction.

Put the series in a group, then use @robs(group)>0 as the sample to keep.

Thanks! More and more I get the feeling that groups are the answer to all my questions :-)
