<P> If you weren't careful when posting the model, several lines will
wrap, which causes LDLite to choke.  You can fix this by increasing the
line length in the program you are using to post from.  The "standard"
line length is 79 characters, which is fine for general posting, but for
posting DAT files you should increase that <I>temporarily</I> to a large
number -- like 150 or so.  You can circumvent this problem by posting the

<P> If you decide to repost the model, remember that you can also cancel
the current post to get rid of it.  </P>
