Paul,
You need to right justify everything (except any rows that are
commented out, as the first character in these rows must be in column
1.) Excel, by default left justifies text and right justifies numbers.
So, if you don't right justify everything, the numbers (on the right)
will be adjacent to (no space between) any "." text, for missing DVs or
doses, following it. I prefer .prn file over .csv, since I can read
them more easily, (and I always hand verify some fraction of the data).
BTW, you need to close the file in Excel before running NONMEM. NONMEM
doesn't know about sharing (sort of like my children) when it comes to
files - if it is open in Excel, NONMEM will be unable to open it.
