Fetching Macrobond data, resize workfile

[tvonbrasch]

Hi

When importing data from macrobond i use the fetch command

Code: Select all

fetch(d=mb, link) var

I want the workfile to automatically resize if the data in the mb-database has more observations than the size of the workfile. This option is available in the import command. But how can I do this if I want to fetch data from Macrobond?

Unfortunately that option is not available for database fetches. You will have to create a workfile that is too large and then adjust the sample to the last non-NA value in the series. I should note however the sample will be incorrect if series in the database does in fact end with NAs.

Ok, excellent, thanks for the tip!
