how can I sort individual series

Postby chasequestion » Mon Aug 08, 2011 4:55 am

I am using Eviews 7 to do the historical simulation to estimate Value at risk on a rolling test basis. Anyone know how to sort the single series (not the whole workfile) ?
Thanks very much!!

You can't (easily), but it may be that what you want to do doesn't require a sort. What is it that you wish to do with the sorted series...

I think I figure it out. Thanks all the same!

Just to followup. EViews Jason reminds me that if all you need to do is to see the sorted series, you can change the display of the series to show the sorted value. But note that this doesn't actually sort the series.

Glad you figured it out.
