Dear EViews Programmer,

i need to automatically set the structure of some workfile-pages. All of these pages contain one series with dates in the form yyyymmdd.

These dates are not regular, as there are no observations on holidays. Further more - for some reason i dont know - for some days there is more than one observation.

Example:
20101010
20101011
20101012
20101012

Now i would like to set the structure of the current page to irregular by using this date series to specify the dates.

I tried to do this using

pagestruct my_date_series

but as there are ties in my_date_series it does not work. Is there any simple command to set the structure to irregular frequency? I think it should be possible as i can do that using the menus.

Thank for your help in before,
Sebastian

By the way, i am using EViews 7.1.

Pagestruct @date(mysteries)

Thanks for your fast reply.

My problem is that some dates occur more than one time, so that the id is not unique for each observation. Do i have to break these ties by hand or is there any function available for doing that?

Error Message when using: pagestruct @data(mydateseries)

Indices do not uniquely identify observations in "PAGESTRUCT @DATE(TEMP_DATUM)".

You'll have to do it by hand (I'm not sure how an automatic method would work!)
