Dear All,

As I new in eviews I would really need your help. I have dividend data for several companies for several years and many idependent variables some of which are dummies. I want to import the to eviews from excel in order to proceed to fixed effect and random effect model least squared

Some specifiactions: I have observations from 8 years and about 500 companies that have more than one observation-dividend for each year. This means that i havenot the same observations between companies and years. addtionally, some of my explantory variables are dummies related to nationality gender etc.
I follow your threads but I fail...do i need to separate observations by year and proceed further...
Is it possible to guide me?

Thank a lot
