Dear all,

I need to save some series into CSV format.

First, I want to save all these series with specified decimal digits, such as 2 digits.

Furthermore, I want to specify the seperation symbol, I want to use " , " as the symbol, not the space.

How can I do it?

I don't find these options in "wfsave" or "pagesave".

Thank you!

There isn't a way to specify the number format during save. You'd have to (tediously) create new series that are rounded to that number of decimal places using the @round function.

If you specify the file name to be saved as .csv and use the t=txt option, EViews will save using commas as the delimiter.

Very helpful, thank you!
