EViews Training
The Basics:
EViews Desktop, Workfiles and Objects
What is EViews?
EViews is an easy-to-use statistical, econometric, and economic
modeling package.
There are three ways to work in EViews:
Graphical user interface (using mouse and menus/dialogs).
Single commands (using the command window).
Program files (commands assembled in a script executed in batch mode).

Views Objects
These objects hold
views of data or
estimation objects.
graph01 - has a
green icon.
It is used to freeze a
view of another object in
time.
To create this view
1. Press the Freeze button

Commands
The command pane provides a scrollable record of the commands typed.
