Hi,

I have a problem with Eviews to which I can't seem to find the answer in the help files.

I have the following OLS equation set up:

eq1.ls Y = c(1) + c(2)*A + c(3)*B + c(4)*D + c(5)*E + c(6)*F

Now I want to run this regression on my data, however with a constraint that c(2)+c(4)+c(5)+c(6) = 1.

How can I process this constraint?

Any help is much appreciated, thanks.

EViews does not perform constrained regression. However, for linear constraints you can always impose the constraint by substitution. For example

ok thanks
