Errors and break down with table @find command in command line

Dear Eviews Team,

I am using Eviews 13, Oct 17 2022 build
When using the @find command with a table object unexepected events, including a break-down of Eviews breaks, occur.
Please refer to the code below for the details.
(PS: Using find manually via keyboard CRT+F works as expected.)

Best, mamo

Code: Select all

wfcreate a 2000 2022 series x=1.658682 freeze(tab) x.sheet ' The following line works as expected string s tab.@find("2005") ' The following line delivers the unexpected result of an empyt string s string s tab.@find("1.6") ' Using the menu or CRTL-F to search for "1.6" gives the expected result of hilighting the first cell in which "1.6" appears. ' The following line , however, causes Eviews to break down tab.@find("Modified")

The crash will be fixed in the next patch.

By the way, your program needed the following changes:

Code: Select all

' The following line works as expected string s = tab.@find("2005") ' The following line delivers the unexpected result of an empyt string s string s = tab.@find("1.6")
