Sorry, for writing again. But I should have provided a more tidy

Please find attached the two approaches: 1) no bundle involved and 2)
bundle involved computing the rolling forecast of a model.
Well, not sure if that's intended (no time to think this through right
now), but the $t1 in the first function after doing "smpl --no-missing"
will in general be different from the $t1 in the second function.
Because on exit from the first function the sample is re-set to the
state that it was in before.
Maybe you should explicitly store in the bundle the information (obsnum
or obslabel) about the samples you really want. Then you can re-set it
whereever you want. This includes: (1) the first data obs ever used
(including initial values), (2) the first obs entering on the LHS of the
equation, (3) the last obs of the initial training sample, (4) the last
available obs, (5) the last obs to be forecast (which might not have
actual observable data, but would be needed as a container in the
workfile) -- you get the idea I guess.

I guess you are right, Sven. It seems to be more tidy generating and
using these strings/values you mentioned. I am going to try this and see
how it works.
Best,
