RE: 20 variable limit in $INPUT

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Monday, March 16, 2009 2:43 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [NMusers] 20 variable limit in $INPUT I am looking for a solution to get around the limit of 20 input variables in nonmem. The message you get with more than 20 variables in $INPUT is this: 16 $INPUT: NO. OF DATA ITEMS EXCEEDS 20. STOP 4 statement executed I did not find anything in the archives or on the Web. I recall having successfully done that in nonmem V, and I think it was about changing the value of 20 to another value in a few files. My original naive idea was that this was just a single change to the SIZES file in nm VI but that seems to not be the case. To keep the discussion focused, I am not looking for workarounds like solutions with concatenated values and an indicator variable. For a change I am trying to get the software to adapt to the user's needs instead of the usual opposite situation. Thanks for any pointers.
