hello ...

I am getting an error message when I type the following into the command line:


alpha country
country = "AU" if crossid = 1

if I remove the

if crossid = 1

part, the command does fill everything with "AU".

I am using eViews 11 University Edition.

- any thoughts
- thanks, Shannon

You want the @recode command

like this:

@recode country = "9" if crossid = 1

in the command window??

- thanks, Shannon

COUNTRY=@recode(CROSSID=1,"bbb",COUNTRY)
