Dear Allin, Thanks for the clarification. I’ve installed the latest snapshot and everything works as expected on my side. Best regards 🙂 Rosa

The problem you had was due to decimal comma being used by gretl when writing (for example) the values of estimated coefficients in a session model. That was a bug, it wasn't supposed to happen. Now, with the latest gretl snapshots, that should be fixed. Specifically, * session files written by gretl should not contain any problematic numerical values, and in addition * "new" gretl should be able to read successfully older session files that were written using the decimal comma.
