i can't get my programs to run in quiet mode---i tried version 8 and version 9

i am running a loop with 10,000 iterations requiring regressions and tables...etc----i don't want all the updates flashing on the screen

it takes forever

what am I doing wrong

thanks

Hard to know what you're doing wrong without knowing what you're doing.

Perhaps you could post the workfile/program and describe how you're making it run quiet.

here is the program......i run the program from the Dialog box

thanks for the help

'''''
smpl @first @last
mode quiet
vector (10000) chow_values
rndseed 1
scalar i

FOR i = 1 TO 100
delete eq2 mytab

'series y_stable = 2 + 1.2*market + .8*hml -.5*smb + 2*nrnd

series y_stable2 = 2 + 1.2*market + .8*hml -.5*smb + 2*nrnd

'equation eq1.ls y_stable c market hml smb

equation eq2.ls y_stable2 c market hml smb

eq2.chow 100
freeze(mytab) eq2.chow 100
chow_values(i) = mytab(6,2)

next

Remove the line:

perfect, that worked

thanks

but why would anything show up, if I am running in quiet mode? Just curious

The command: has an implicit show in front of it. Show overrides quiet.

very cool

thanks

is there anyway of knowing what has the implicit show?

Not really. Generally anything that only displays results (like the Chow test) will have a show. There is absolutely no reason to perform the Chow test without a freeze statement unless you wanted to see the results, so if you do perform a Chow test without a freeze, EViews will show the results.
