Is res a matrix or a series? You might try

series res = $yhat

Subject: [Gretl-users] How to post some question


Dear Gretl-users,
I have to test by LM  this vector of variables Y=[g t y n]'. Thus, I create a system with 4 equations, each one includes some lagged variable of one of the variables in Y. 
1st step:  I run an ols and save the residual by  "genr res=$yhat", also I have to save the matrix residual sum of squares. To do the latter I use to transform into X'X my residual. 

2nd step: I need to regress the residuals on some other variables (i.e. g*c)
At this step I have a problem: I cannot regress the residual on covariates because "the residual is not a variable".

Can you suggest me how to solve this problem in Gretl?

Thanks
