HI,
when i run a programme, i get the error SR4(tried to use series number -5, -series n1 n2 triples are no longer legal). what does the error mean? how to solve the problem?

i have series x1 x2 hr1, all series with the same date (they do match, no data dismatch problem)
with code ''set v1 = x1 - hr*x2 '', i think it might could not time up two time series, then i try to use a loop
''do i=1,10
set v1 i i = x1 i i - hr i i*x2 i i
end do ''
it does not work, then i give up loop, replace the 'set v1 = x1 - hr*x2 ' with 'set v1(t) = x1(t) - hr(t)*x2(t)' and 'set v1 = x1(t) - hr(t)*x2(t) ' respectively, neither of them work, and still have problem with error SR4.
How to sort it out?
Appreciate any suggestion!

sounds like what you want. Did you have the required spaces before and after the =?

yesyes, i did put space before and after =, but i put space before and after - . oh, i realise space should not be put on -.
it work now. thanks so much!
