Quandt Andrews Breakpoint test error message - Illegal dates

Postby jimriordan » Tue Mar 17, 2015 8:00 am

Hello, I am performing a Quandt Andrews Break Point test and I am getting the following error message: "Error in in Sample Illegal Date". When our consultant runs the test they do not get the error. I also do not get the error if I use six dates indicating 3 winter periods.
Thanks!

What is the build date and version of your copy of EViews (Help->About EViews)?

You should update it to the latest version.

Do you think that will resolve the issue?

Do you know how much that would cost?

Updating to the latest version of 7 is free, and should fix it
