unmatched parenthesis

[xs225002]

Hi there,

When I am doing the system estimation, I met the error message that "unmatched parenthesis". However, after going through the command several times, I cannot find my error. I suspect this may be a bug. Would you please help check it? Thanks a lot!

The command is listed as follows:

You might be hitting a maximum line length problem in a program.

What happens if you copy and paste that specification into the System object, rather than using a program to do it. Does it estimate then?
