[Gretl-users] alert: database corrupted!

The gretl package comes with one US macroeconomic database, conatining data from the Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis. I'm afraid that the version of this database that was distributed with gretl 1.5.1 may be corrupted, in that some of the series lengths are wrong, so the series as advertised in the database index are out of phase with the true data series. My apologies for this oversight. You can fix this, if you have Internet access, as follows: * Go to the File menu * Select Browse databases, on database server * Scroll down and select the "fedstl" database * Click the "Install" button This will install a corrected (and updated) version of the St Louis Fed database. -- Allin Cottrell Department of Economics Wake Forest University, NC
