Hi - I’ve been trying to use the SRVAR add-in but it stops running due to an Error 14 in encrypted program.

Any idea how to solve this? I am using EViews12.

Thanks

Could you provide the data and command or description of the dialog box?

Hi dakila - thanks so much for your reply.

I have attached the workfile and an command example of one of the county VARs (Belgium) below. This is just a test example and can be changed if neccessary but keep getting no. 14 and no. 6 errors.

srvar(const=0, kmax=4) 2 constr @ bgcr bgmr bgph bgih

Did you read the instruction pdf file which is located the add-in folder (e.g. C:\Users\...\Documents\EViews Addins\srvar).
You have to create a vector named constr before to run the command (srvar(const=0, kmax=4) 2 constr @ bgcr bgmr bgph bgih).
For example:

Hi Dakila - yes, I created the const vector. It actually runs fine using .prg its just with the menu/dialog box where I get the errors/. The problem is I am trying to add zero restrictions also and not sure how to do this outside the dialog box. Do you know the command for this?

Command to execute zero restriction is zvar (e.g. zvar=bgcr). If you using dialog box you don't need create a sign restriction vector. Just put a sign index of variables with comma on the sign restriction vector box (e.g. put this +1,+2,+3,-4).

thats great Dakila - that worked. Thanks for your help
