EViews.com

I'm trying to find a way to obtain the string values from a series object's History attribute.

In my Object Reference documentation, the list of available series data members include everything else (e.g. @description, ..., @updatetime) but nothing about the History field.

I'm using Eviews 7.2

I think the only way to do it, currently, is to freeze the label view into a table and then grab it from that.

Thanks! That should work for me. The labels in all of my series are structured in a similar fashion, so the History information should always fall in the same row of the "mytab" table.

It would be nice to add an @history option to future builds of Eviews in order to retrieve that information directly from the series object.

EV8 will have something similar.
