RE: create simulation file for 5000 patients ?

Dennis, I'll show you how to do it in Excel someday. But the answer is to use the SUBPROBLEMS option in the SIMULATION record SUBPROBLEMS=n Requests that the entire NONMEM problem is to be repeated n times in succession (including all NONMEM steps: simulation, estima- tion, covariance, table, scatterplot). Each subproblem includes the Simulation Step, but the random sources are simply continued from subproblem to subproblem. If n=0 or n=1, there is only one subproblem; this is the default. May also be coded SUBPROBS, NSUBPROBLEMS, NSUBPROBS.
