For the next two weeks or so, you should be gathering the data and entering them into EXCEL. Bring me a floppy with the EXCEL file(s) and I will help you create ESL files. Once ESL has read your data successfully, you should use the following commands from the ? prompt.
   
   print -o ;
   summary ;
   corr ;

The first will print the data back as a table.   You should check this against your worksheets to make sure that what ESL reads is what you wanted it to read.   If there is any error, data might be put into the wrong place, and you know the old cliche, "garbage in, garbage out".   The second line will give you summary statistics which will come in handy when you calculate marginal effects.   The last command will give you the correlation matrix which will be useful to identify multicollinearity.
