why the sample size is fixed to 751?

I've found mpalmi had the same problem with me. I have only 558 oberservations but the sheet would always tell me that there are 751. Eviews would set the number after 558 zero. This REALLY matters because it affects the mean of the variable and the regression.
Thanks all!

I think you are trying to edit the coefficent vector "C" in the workfile. If you have undated observations, then you can create an integer dated workfile:

Code: Select all

wfcreate u 558
And then, you can create/generate your own series in the workfile:

Code: Select all

series myser
You should enter the values into this series.
