Example 12. This example uses a "data metafile" to run many series with 
            a single spec file.  Twenty-five simulated series are 
            included in the example set.

            Note that the quality diagnostics of X-11-ARIMA and 
            X-12-ARIMA reject the seasonal adjustment of white noise 
            series.   



Example 12: sim.dta  

"data metafile" for using the spec file sim.spc to adjust 25 simulated white
noise series, placing the output of each run in a file named for its series.

# Table F3, and for saving M7 and Q to the log file, for runs done on series
# contained in files whose names are listed in a data metafile.  Each run
# calculates a default X-11 additive decomposition.
