From:"Bachman, William" Subject: [NMusers] NONMEM Tips #17 - May 19, 2003 - A Word Macro for Reformatting NO NMEM Output Date:Mon, 19 May 2003 14:40:33 -0400 This tip was contributed by Nathan Teuscher : The default NONMEM output is a text format that is 132 columns wide and contains format codes used by UNIX FORTRAN printing programs (for example, the "^1" at the beginning of lines which signals a page break). Many users import this file into word processing programs like Microsoft Word and manually modify the file to a format more acceptable to their individual reporting requirements. Macro's can also be created to automate this process. Nathan Teuscher of NPS Pharmaceuticals has written and made avavilable to nmusers a macro for Word that uses the FORTRAN page breaks and reformats NONMEM standard output to be printed on 8.5 x 11" paper in a portrait format. The macro, NONMEM_reformat.bas, (in a .bas form) can be retrieved from the NONMEM Repository at GloboMax: ftp://ftp.globomaxnm.com/Public/nonmem/word/ (This tip is supplied "gratis" and without implicit or explicit support from either Nathan Teuscher or GloboMax LLC).
