quick temporary table creation

I'm wondering if there is a better way to quickly display a table with some series and manipulations of the series. I also want to be able to edit the series in this view.

For example, let's say I want to show GDP, @pc(GDP), @pca(GDP). The way I can see to do this now is to pretend that I want to create a group:
"group N GDP @pc(GDP) @pca(GDP)
n.sheet"

Then I need to "delete N" when I am done or just leave my temporary view lying around the workfile.

I find this awkward and imagine there are some custom views of a series I can more easily call up. Please note that I do NOT want to ONLY show one view of a series at a time as I would do when opening a series and changing to "% change A.R." in the pull-down menu. I want to show a series' levels and 2+ manipulations.

Also, in a group spreadsheet, I can add a single row with a manipulation to each series, but I cannot see how to add more than one.

Not sure I understand all the questions, but you can use:

Code: Select all

show GDP @pc(GDP) @pca(GDP)
