Hi Frank, I think this script will partially solve your problem (X1 to X5)
the final loop will provide X1 X2 X3 X4 X5 Artur > Message du 29/04/10 15:15 > De : "Franck Nadaud" > A : gretl-users(a)lists.wfu.edu > Copie à : > Objet : [Gretl-users] selecting contiguous variables in lists > > > Dear GRETL folk, greetings from Paris ! > > I am still on my demand system analysis and AIDS modelling. > > This project involves regressions in on large cross-sections (~ 10 000 > observations) on households.

Hi Frank,
I think this script will partially solve your problem (X1 to X5)
<script>
list housing = X1
loop for i = 2..5
list housing = housing X$i
endloop
</script
the final loop will provide X1 X2 X3 X4 X5
