Hello everyone,
Thanks for the fast answers.
I have realised what hapened.
One variable name had a character not recognised by Gretl (either a tilde
or a cedilla).
The database came from SPSS, which allows this special characters.
Thanks once again.
Marcelo

Hi Marcelo,
could you give is some a code example of what steps you're executing,
please? Also, is there any variable name that includes that "§" symbol?

Hello Marcelo,
The problem could be in the translation file (I suspect you may be using
some PT translation). If that is the case, then you can confirm that the
problem does not happen when running in English:
In a command window/shell or terminal you could start with "gretl -e"
Repeat then the Summary Statistics for the variable and confirm if the
error does not show.
Thanks.
