According to my knowledge, The Durbin-Watson statistic is used to test for autocorrelation using E-views program. The Durbin-Watson test yields a result between 0 and 4, with 0 indicating positive autocorrelation and 4 indicating negative autocorrelation. A result close to 2 provides sufficient confidence that no autocorrelation is present.

Thank you very much, but I am not sure if I can use the DW for the panel data.

The manual has an example of using the Wooldridge framework for testing against an AR(1) in a panel setting.
