Retrieving information from Coint command output

Hi,

I am trying to retrieve the output from the coint command, using freeze. But I don't seem to be able to get the syntax right. E.g. I've tried
freeze(test) coint(b, 4, cvsize=0.05) lexp ltpy lrer
and get an error message saying that I have used an "illegal lag or index specification for the series for the series coint."

I have also tried
coint(b, 4, cvsize=0.05) lexp ltpy lrer
freeze(test)
print test

Eviews tells me that it is printint test, but when I tried to read information from test, I get NAs.

Finally, I have had troubel adding exogenous variables to coint command, e.g.
coint(b, 4, cvsize=0.05) lexp ltpy lrer @ dd
freeze(test)
only to get the error message that there is a syntax error in "@"

I am stumped, please help.

Put the series in a group, then use the:

Code: Select all

freeze(test) group.coint(b, 4 cvsize=0.05)
syntax.
