Hi Laura,

There are many different cases to change the display time frame. In your case,
I will try the following steps:

1) open the bundle, in the popup window, check the "change data paths"

2) select the replacement of the data needs to be replaced

and you should be able to see the display in the new dataset.

The other way is to open the old bundle, and save it to a new bundle, when the 
save window
popup, uncheck the "Data Sources", so you only save the display, and when you 
load this new
bundle back, it will ask you for the data.
