How to set the Final Time through the DLL

Hi

What I want to do is create a program in c# that uses vensim DLL to load a model and run.

The problem is I cant figure out how to tell the dll how long to run the simulation for. It only runs the time hard coded into the model.

As a seperate question, is it possible to query the DLL to retrieve the name of the input file (in this case an xls file).

Thanks

try -

"SIMULATE>SETVAL|<var name>=<time>"

Cant help with DLL though.

If you mean by the name of the input file an xls file from a GET XLS CONSTANTS/DATA the answer is no. you can use vensim_get_info for some of the input file names.
