Converting Standard Errors/Deviations

I have a regression that I've calculated on a growth series, but I'm looking to now convert that series to levels and graph it. I want to create a band of standard errors or standard deviations for the level series, but I can't figure out how to convert the standard errors and standard deviations to correspond with the level series rather than the growth series. Does anyone know if Eviews 6 is capable of doing this? And if you can do it in Eviews, can you tell me how? Thanks for the help!

If you defined the dependent variable in terms of EViews' functions (e.g. dlog(), @pc()), then you would have both options (level and change) to generate in-sample forecasts along with error bands. Hit the "Forecast" tab in the Equation window to see your options.
