Need Help with Seasonal Adjustment

Hi,

I imported a series from Excel. Then choose "Proc/Seasonal Adjustment/CensusX12" but comes up an Error Message "Seasonal Adjustment is only available for quarterly and monthly data". Any advice? Thanks.

Use Proc/Structure to convert your workfile to quarterly or monthly.

Hello Startz,

Thank you for your prompt reply. Your method worked. Is there a way to write this proc/structure process to a Eviews program so that Eviews can do it automatically? Thanks again.

Lookup "pagestruct" in your command reference.
