I had the following problem, when running programs in a sequence. Let's say that in the first file of the sequence I have:
and in the second file in my sequence I have the command
when Eviews gets to the second program, it substitutes !i with the next value from the previous loop, so that it becomes. Is there a way to drop !i after it has been used in the loop?

Meanwhile, I solved the issue by changing !i to !linenumber in the first loop

Thank you

Hello,

I'm afraid there isn't a way to undefine a variable such that it won't trigger substitution later in an EViews program. However, since you're running multiple programs sequentially, you can isolate the individual programs' variables from one another by using "exec" instead of "run" or "include". Program variables are not shared across an exec invocation, so variables defined in the invoking program do not appear in the invoked program and vice versa. It's an all or nothing proposition, either all variables are shared (run/include) or none are shared (exec), you cannot control sharing on a variable-by-variable basis.
