Extract Series Attributes

Postby hfwill » Mon Feb 07, 2011 11:10 am

Is there a way to extract the frequency conversion properties of a series and store them in a string (along the lines of the @displayname option)?

Stil not in EViews 7.2 or 8?
The similar question to Eviews databases: Is there any way to retrieve the properties of the EViews database elements (object description) by a program? If I could make an “open series” as from the menu by hand and freeze this window to a table, would be fine.

The @wquery function can do it. You want either the "convert_hilo" or the "conver_lohi" attributes.

Great, this is working even in EViews 7.2 with all attributes and both workfiles and databases. Thanks.
