My data set is listed as below: ID EVID TIME AMT SS II DV MDV 1 4 0 100 1 8 0 1 1 0 3 0 0 0 14 0 1 4 0 200 1 12 0 1 1 0 3 0 0 0 10 0 2 4 0 150 1 12 0 1 2 0 3 0 0 0 14 0 3 4 0 400 1 24 0 1 3 0 3 0 0 0 12 0 3 4 0 200 1 24 0 1 3 0 3 0 0 0 27 0 3 4 0 450 1 24 0 1 3 0 3 0 0 0 17 0 ....... I tried to check my data set by running CHECKOUT. However, after running, I got the following messages: (DATA WARNING 6) ENTIRE RECORD IS BLANK When I got in the output file, in the "TABLES OF DATA AND PREDICTION", all the prediction values are zero. Could someone kindly tell what dose that mean? Thanks in advance Clement

Predictions all zero is normal behavior for $DATA CHECKOUT (it just checks out data :). If you want predictions without estimation, use $EST MAXEVAL=0 or $SIM. William J.

However, it kept showing "NUMERICAL DIFFICULTIES WITH STEADY STATE SOLUTION. MESSAGE TERMINATED BY OBJ". Could someone tell me what does that mean?
