Table for data releases

Hello,
Hope all well.
Is it in theory possible to replicate the attached screenshot of a Bloomberg data release in Eviews as a table? I have also attached the .prg and .wf for the underlying data.
Would be great if you could point me in the right direction.
Thanks a lot.
Best wishes,
Günter

Not sure I understand the question.
Are the data contained in that table available in the series you have in the workfile?

Hi Gareth,
The raw data is in the workfile.
So for the first row for example the data is
cpi_chng series US CPI Urban Consumers MoM SA for "Actual"
cpi_chng_bn_survey_median series US CPI Urban Consumers MoM SA for "Surv(M)"
cpi_chng series LAG minus 1 US CPI Urban Consumers MoM SA for "Actual" for "Prior"
cpi_chng_first_revision series US CPI Urban Consumers MoM SA for "Revised"
I have created a group for the series above with a sample range for February 2021.
I don't know yet how to create a similar table as in the screenshot for row one for example.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Best wishes,
Günter

ok, got it.
Not easy.
There's two ways I can think of. One would be to stack the data in a new page with each group being a row on the new page. This is complex.
The other way is to manually create a table object and copy the data into the cells of the table one by one. Something like:
Code: Select all
table mytable
mytable(1,1) = "CPI MoM"
freeze(tmp) cpi_mom.sheet
tmp.copyrange b3 e3 mytable b1
d tmp
