Hello.

I'm running Eviews 8 on a mac (el capitan).

When i try to change the "current data path" in "file locations" I am not able to because I cant type backslash within Eviews with the usual shift+alt+7.

Is there a way around this?

Does your keyboard not have the \ button? It is right next to the } button.

No I'm from Denmark so the layout is different.

In all other windows/applications i can type shift+alt+7 for backslash, but not within EViews.

You could just copy and paste the backslash character from the other entries.

The forward slash should work as well.

Oh yeah, forward works as well. Thank you!
