link objects and functions

Hi,

I use Eviews 7.1.

I want to use "linked series", i.e having link objects in eg. weekly sheet pointing to data in monthly sheet.

The links work and are created in the following way:
- in weekly sheet: link cpi.linkto(c=q) monthly\cpi

I create a forecast of cpi in the weekly sheet, and want to evaluate it:

scalar cpi_rmse = @rmse(cpi,cpi_f)

I get error message that function requires series and not links. Other functions like @mean etc. work as expected.

Best,
Dagfinn

BTW: I have a frequency conversion question posted under programming that I was wondering about.
