hello, all, and thanks for any help you can provide.

i'm trying to get ev8 to compute elasticities at the mean. i've found the coefscale command but i'm too much of a noob to figure out how to run this command. i'm able to estimate my model using the "quick--estimation" function (e.g., naupc c mc gfoa delay avmpc narpc urate pccpc vccpc opebpc).

can you guide me further? many thanks, eljayski

Just open up the equation you estimated and click on View->Coefficient Diagnostics->Scaled Coefficients.
