Does the Professional Edition allow menu driven execution of SHAZAM?
Yes. The Professional Edition has been built specifically to bring a high level of user friendliness to SHAZAM. Notably, using the SHAZAM Wizards it is possible to perform estimation, run diagnostics, specify confidence intervals, restrictions, do hypothesis tests, construct forecasts and many other tasks all with the click of a mouse. SHAZAM Wizards also allow the construction of program statements so that as users become more demanding in their requirements they may easily make the transition from menu driven execution to more advanced analytical programming methods.
