EViews 6.1 (Auto-updating series)

[Riaz]

Hi

EViews 6.1 (Hypothetical example)

I have 2 workfile pages called DATA and WKS1

DATA has 2 series and they are WAGE and CPI

On WKS1 I want to create and auto-updating series called RWAGE (real wage)

I write the following script

Pageselect WKS1
frml RWAGE data::(WAGE/CPI)

It does not work… I wonder where am I going wrong?

Use a link object with the link to command. You can't do a link and a formula at the same time though, so you'll have to do something like:

Code: Select all

pageselect wks1 link wage.linkto data::wage link cpi.linkto data::cpi frml rwage = wage/cpi

or, alternatively

Code: Select all

pageselect data frml rwage = wage/cpi pageselect wks1 link rwage.linkto data::rwage
