sample condition

I'm working with a forecasting horizon from 2012-2020 and a model that includes along other equation a text equation for a series X.
Forecasts for 2012 to 2013 (short-run) are "given" and implemented in the model by the model control command.
Hence, the text equation "only applies" to the period 2014-2020. Fine!
e.g.

Code: Select all

model m2 m2.append dlog(X)=1*dlog(Y) smpl 2012 2013 m2.control X_a X X_f smpl 2012 2020 m2.solve
Problem:
But how could I implement (ignoring the existing short-term forecasts) that for 2012-2013 an equation is used and from 2014-2020 the test equation? Manually there seems to be an option in properties ->endogenous-->secnarios excluded--> exclude sample. But this seems not to be the solution to the problem. Any suggestions to the code provided below???

e.g.

Code: Select all

model m2 smpl 2014 2020 'long-run text equation m2.append dlog(X)=1*dlog(Y) smpl 1970 2011 equation eq1.ls dlog(X)=c(4)+ c(5)*dlog(y)+c(6)*dlog(z)+c(7)*dlog(w) smpl 2012 2013 'short-run estimation equation m2.merge eq1 smpl 2012 2020 m2.solve
