| DistSpread that uses historical data | ||||||||
| DistSpreadH does a standard DistSpread, after allowing for PmtsHistory. In effect it does a MkPmts and then a DistSpread after adjusting for the payments made. The DistSpread starts upon the last date in the DatesHistory which has a non-zero paymen | ||||||||

| It is most important to realise over what timeperiod the remaining amounts are spread.  The start of the forecast is the date of the last history payment that has a non-zero payment. The finish of the forecast is the date specified by Finish.  This means that if you want zero overlap between the historic and future payments, you should put a small non-zero amount as the last historic payment, say 1e-9.  That will mean that the next date will be the start of the forecast. | ||||||||
