About Eliminating Insignificant Variables

I am running a regression with many independent variables. Some of them are insignificant.

What I need to do is to eliminate the most insignificant variable --> see the result --> eliminate the most insignificant variable --> repeat until all variables remaining are significant.

Is there any build-in function in EViews to do this elimination automatically?

Thank you.

Look up stepwise estimation in the manual/help system.
