Replacing variable names in a model
Posted: Thu Nov 02, 2023 10:33 am
Hello,
If I want to replace variable names in a model I can use the" "replacevar" statement. In the Help file I get:
"Replace all instances of a variable in the text specification of a model with a different variable"
However if an estimated equation has been MERGED the variable names are not replaced.
Of course I can duplicate the equation formula after estimation into an APPEND statement.
But is there a way to change the names inside the merged equation? I do not want to lose the estimation characteristics (ifor instance, if I want to solve using the stochastic option). Also, I want to be sure the duplication is correct.
Is there a way to do it.?
Best regards..
