Hi Allin,

 

Should I assume that the format 12/16/2008 is not supported?

I changed the d-Mon-YY to MM/DD/YYYY format using excel, but again it was not accepted by Gretl.

Opening, the new formatted by excel file to the MM/DD/YYYY format, in my editor (Notepad+), I verify that the format is changed to MM/DD/YYYY format.

This is no different from the format the file I received from Helio has.

Also when I tried to upload the file Helio sent I faced exactly the same issues/steps.

 

So, I still cannot make sense of the last 2 emails I received and how they resolve my issue. 

 

Pictures bellow show up to a point my attempt to load Helio’s csv (which are the same as the steps I go through when I upload my new formatted by excel file to the MM/DD/YYYY format).

 

Thanks,

A.

 

 

 

 

 

Etc, etc.

 

A

Thanks.

 

Gretl recognizes daily dates given as:

 

DD-MM-YYYY (e.g. 01-12-2007)

MM-DD-YYYY (e.g. 12-01-2007)

YYYY-MM-DD (e.g. 2007-12-01, the ISO standard)

 

and some variations on these (e.g. using "/" instead of "-").

 

It also accepts two-digit years (ambiguous as to century) up to a point. But it is not trained to recognize d-Mon-YY.
