Grabbing Variable Names

I am curious if there is a way to grab each independent variable name separately from an regression equation output. I am running several models with time lags and am having the results captured in a table to quickly examine all of them as a group as opposed to comparing each one individually. I have been able to get the coefficients and p-values for the dependent variables, but I can't seem to find a way to capture the names of the dependent variable and independent variables. As the equation changes each time I do a comparison or add data, I would like the system to recognize there are now 4 instead of 5 variables, and apply those new variable names to the table.
I'm using Eviews 8.

equation.@varlist.
You should take a look at the source code for the eqtabs add-in. Probably has a lot of stuff similar to what you're trying to do.

Thanks, I'll check that out.
I've been using the @varlist currently, but was hoping there was something allowing me to pull out each variable independently, something like @varlist(i).
I'll look into the eqtabs. Thanks again.

I'll try this.
By the way, that EqTabs addin is awesome, almost exactly what I need. Thanks for pointing me in that direction.
