Hi, I used function StructTS some time ago to fit a structural model to a time series. Now with R 1.6.2-1 I repeated the analysis with the same series and I get the following error: Error in KalmanLike2(y, Z, -1) : invalid argument type I tried with other series and I get the same error; I checked the examples in the documentation and they work fine. I suspect I am missing something here... Any hints are welcome Thank you in advance, Susana Barbosa

Could you produce a small reproducible example exhibiting the problem? -- Brian D.

Thank you for your reply. I am sending a sample time series (not too long I hope!). With the input: load("ts1") StructTS(ts1, type="BSM") I get the following error: Error in KalmanLike2(y, Z, -1) : invalid argument type Thank you!
