App crash when PoolGenr refers to another Page

Hello,
I keep getting an App crash when I try to run this equation in PoolGen. I have 13 series in the pool, running Eviews 9 64 bit.

newseries?=(Page\series?/page\series?(-@datediff(@date,@dateadd(@date, -1, "m"), "b")))-1

That PoolGen works fine in the page containing the original series; I only get the error wen I try to run it in a new page.

Thanks R.

We'll fix the crash, but EViews won't do what you want it to do - the @date functions inside your lag operator are ambiguous, since EViews doesn't know which page to use @date on. I think you'll have to calculate the number of lags you want outside the genr statement, then use that number of lags inside the genr.

Thanks - to be fair that's probably why it's crashing.
Still making some newb mistakes...
