Andreas,
Thanks for pointing out my error with the IGNORE logic. The comma is
indeed a logical OR not a logical AND!
Here is the description from NONMEM html help (it hasn't changed in
NONMEM 7 beta).
"If there is more than one condition, then records satisfying at least
one of these conditions will be dropped. In effect, the conditions for
dropping a record are connected by the implied conjunction ".OR.". E.g.
IGNORE=(GEN.EQ.1,AGE.GT.60). Records having GEN equal to 1 or AGE
greater than 60 are dropped. "

Nick,
should your ".AND." in the email not be a ".OR." because the record is
ignored if A or B is true?
One might as well read this as "ignore records with A AND ignore
records with B", but that seems more confusing to me.
Best regards,
Andreas

Re: [NMusers] Problems with IGNORE
German,
Change this:
IGNORE=(ID.EQ.108.AND.CMT.EQ.3)
to:
IGNORE=(ID.EQ.108, CMT.EQ.3)
The IGNORE record is not a FORTRAN logical statement. It is an NM-TRAN
convention that a "," is equivalent to ".AND.".
