Eventus 8 User's Guide for Our WRDS and Other Annual Unlimited User Subscriber Organizations
New improved Standard Edition 2.1 dated January 2007!
Current printable version. This link is
restricted by IP address to organizations with an annual subscription license,
including all Eventus for WRDS subscribers and some but not all Eventus 8
and 9 for Windows
licensees. For off-campus access, you need to connect through
your organization's network; we suggest going through a VPN provided by your
organization or perhaps Windows Remote Desktop access to your office PC.
If you
can't access this link from your organization's network, and either your organization has an Eventus for WRDS
subscription or you have specific personal knowledge that your organization has
the required type of non-WRDS subscription to Eventus,
please submit a
support request.
For a limited time, authorized users of Eventus 8 for Windows under any currently valid license (annual subscription or single-version, single-fee) can download the latest edition of the printable User's Guide by selecting Check for Eventus 8 Update from the Start menu folder for Eventus. (In a few cases the menu item will read True Update instead of Check for....)
Eventus 8 User's Guide - Similar to Above But Not Printable
from the Web
Standard Edition 2.1
Publicly readable, non-printable version
Erratum: There is a mistake in equation A.40, appendix section A.2 in the Eventus 8.0 User's Guide Standard Edition 2.1. In the denominator of S, sigma-hat-BHAR should be divided by the square root of N. We gratefully acknowledge Rajesh Thrayan at University of Exeter for pointing this out.

features in Eventus 8.0 (and still in Eventus 9.0) that were not in Eventus 7.0
