Hi,
I want to copy a series without the most extreme values between two sheets (from sheet1 to sheet2) with same length and frequency. Example:


smpl @all if @abs(eur)<@quantile(@abs(eur),0.99)
series tmp = eur
copy tmp sheet2\eur

but I would rather do something without creating the "tmp"-variable, like


copy(smpl="@all if @abs(eur)<@quantile(@abs(eur),0.99)") eur sheet2\

Unfortunately this doesn't work. I get error-message that "eur" already exist.

Thanks,

Dagfinn

I don't think there's a way around it.

OK. Please consider it as a request.

Not even the following works:


copy(smpl="@all if @abs(of_eur)<@quantile(@abs(of_eur),0.99)",c=ln) of_eur testsheet\* @src @date @dest @date
