Gets a matrix of estimates.
Syntax
object.GetEstimates (matrixID, theMatrixBase0)
object.GetEstimates (matrixID, theMatrixBase0, groupNumber)
The GetEstimates method syntax has the following parts:
Part |
Description |
object |
An object of type AmosEngine. |
matrixID |
An integer that specifies a matrix of estimates, as described in Settings. |
theMatrixBase0 |
A double precision array, dimensioned in the calling routine as Dim theMatrixBase0() As Double or as Dim theMatrixBase0(,) As Double On return from GetEstimates theMatrixBase0 contains the estimate of the matrix specified by matrixID. |
groupNumber |
Optional integer specifying a group number. The first group is group number 1. If groupNumber is omitted, the first group is used. |
Placement: [3].

Remarks
You have to use NeedEstimates to declare that estimates of a matrix will be needed before you can use GetEstimates to obtain the estimates. For example, you have to use
object.NeedEstimates (StandardizedTotalEffects)
before using
object.GetEstimates (StandardizedTotalEffects, …)
