Error Handling

[tim_r]

Hi

I am doing a grid search using a for loop. In each iteration I estimate an equation. For some iterations the estimation does not work. How can I tell EViews to exit the loop when the error occurs, rather than the program stopping?

I am using EViews 12.

Thanks

Look up setmaxerrs and @errorcount

Hi Gareth

Thanks. I would prefer to get the program to exit the loop, as if estimation fails once it must fail for all of the subsequent iterations, and they don't need to be tried as would happen with those commands. Is that possible?

Exitloop is the command to exit a loop
