I cannot replicate this. Could you state exactly what you did?

I replicated Bob's bug by opening the workfile and typing in the command. I did get another, apparently random, number in the alert box. This was on my home machine. On my work machine the code runs fine. (Both are the current build of EViews.)

Could you do the supportinfo command on both machines, and paste results here (or email)?

Good news (sort of).
We've been able to replicate the error. The reason that Gareth wasn't able to see the error is, I believe, due to differences in the global evaluation settings on the relevant machines.
In the dialog for Options/General Options/Auto-series there is a setting for whether to report auto-series evaluation errors in statistical views and procedures. Presumably, bparksb has this set to "Report evaluation errors" and Gareth has it set to "Treat evaluation errors as NAs". EViews is attempting to report the error on bparks' machine as requested, but the error code "1073741824" is not a particularly instructive error message :D. Clearly that has to be fixed, and we'll look at it.
For now, if bparks changes the Global Options setting to Gareth's, the estimation will go through, dropping the missings as required. We'll get the error message cleaned up. Thanks for your patience on this one. It wasn't an easy one to replicate.
