I have a time series dataset and want to access a variable as a subscripted array. Then I could do something like;

 

loop for i=1 .. 5

print v1[i]

endloop

 

but that doesn't work. I tried:

 

genr matrix X = v1

 

which gives me a Tx1 matrix equal to v1. I then tried:

 

print X[1,1]

 

but X is not the name of a variable or something. It didn't work. Can a series be treated like a subscripted array?

 

Thanks,

bob
