Hello all,

I'm running Stata/MP 13.0 for Mac (64-bit Intel) Revision 19 Sep 2013 on OSX Version 10.8.5 and have run into a weird error with -forecast solve-. Specifically, I am unable to save iterations.  After setting up the model, I have no problem running

. forecast solve, begin(2009) prefix(f_) simulate(betas, statistic(stddev, prefix(sdf_)))

However, if I instead try to save iterations...

. forecast solve, begin(2009) prefix(f_) simulate(betas, statistic(stddev, prefix(sdf_)) saving(baseline, replace))

David,

I have been able to replicate this bug.  We'll get it fixed in an upcoming ado-file update.
