Data range

[antipa]

Hello,

I have a monthly data set that encompasses roughly 3200 observations. However, only certain data range are of interest to me. When specifiying the sample range, I run into the problem that eviews doesn't consider all date pairs. Is there a maximum number of data pairs that the sample command can manage?

The command I use is

sample sample_name date pairs

Thank you very much in advance!

Probably, how many do you have?

[antipa]

ideally I would like to include 10 date pairs

After you say

Code: Select all

sample sample_name date pairs

follow it up with

Code: Select all

smpl sample_name

[antipa]

if I understand correctly smpl set the current workfile sample to the sample I have specified. but how do I include additional dates?

[startz]

smpl 1 2 5 8 9 23 35 1000

or whatever.
