<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA" style="color:#366092">Thanks for everyone’s input. Indeed as Nick has mentioned I have found a fix to the issue, but Nick beat me to posting it on the list! Saving the .inp and .pd2 files separately and reopening the
simulation from those did the trick (as if you would send the simulation to someone else). Although, unfortunately I cannot comment as to
<u>why</u> this happens. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA" style="color:#366092">But you can all add this fix to the list of little things to try whenever the SIM file misbehaves.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I suppose it’s worth mentioning I’ve learned off-list that Jason Ng’s individual issue has been resolved. His fix involved copying and/or saving the project (INP/PD2/PRD) to a new directory and reopening there
on the same computer. Could be worth trying for others experiencing similar issues with their output reporting.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">From this I suspect there could possibly be something going on with respect to something
<i>like</i> read/write permissions for existing files in the project directory (perhaps it’s the sort of issue that goes away when you work only on local hard drive and not a shared work directory?), and/or it’s ultimately some SIM writing bug to work out in
the current version.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">With discussion leaning this direction, I feel it may be helpful to point out a small mailing list thread from ~2 months ago that didn’t stir up a lot of discussion, but should be on folks’ radar concerned with
current vs. previous versions. Therein I’m supplementing a suggested procedure from Bill Bishop to have the most current build of eQUEST v3.65 co-existing with the previous build (v7163). If you follow these instructions, your start menu might look something
like mine, allowing you to open/begin projects in whichever version suits your needs:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I can assure you the file simulates and produces a SIM SV-A report without these problems on my machine. I’d attach the SIM, but at ~7MB it might not get through to you and the lists with reliability.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Considering also that both D2SIMViewer’s from different builds show the same problem suggests the problem is not with your project files or with your output viewers – there’s something up with your local eQuest
installation. I’d uninstall and reinstall build 7163 next, or if you’re pressed for time just switch to someone else’s computer.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA" style="color:black">I have tried opening and closing eQUEST, restarting my computer, opening the file on another computer, opening the file with the EQ3.64 Simviewer AND EQ3.65 simviewer, and I’ve made modifications to
my simulation but nothing seems to help. This leads me to believe that there is something wrong with the simulation but the simulation runs well without any errors and I get results that make reasonable sense. My other simulation .SIM files seem to work fine.
I have attached the simulation file in question which was simulated using EQ 3.65, build 7163.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
