Data on RATS

[Eric]

To Whom It May Concern,

I am having trouble in getting data that I have onto RATS. I tried the data wizard, then intraday, then set the number of observations. However, I was not successful. I would appreciate it if you could please help me in getting the data onto RATS.

Thank you very much for your time and help.

Regards,

Eric

Could you attach in a reply at least a part of your actual data set? It looks as if you have the date and time as separate columns, and how RATS will handle that will depend upon how they are represented numerically in the data.

Hi Tom,

I have managed to import the data to RATS. When I view the data series, it goes from 2009 08 to 2015 01. At the moment I import the data as follows:

CAL(PPD=119,I) 2008 08 11

Thank you very much.

Take the 2008 8 11 off the CALENDAR instruction:

Code: Select all

CAL(PPD=119,I) 2008 08 11

That's working at cross purposes with the "I" option. PPD=119,I means that you have 119 period per day, with irregular days. It will label the entries as 1//1,...1//119,2//1,...2//119,...
