XMILE Model Error dialog box is unhelpful

Post by Travis »

After struggling to import an XMILE formatted model, the imported MDL code has errors. I understand that importing might not always work.

But the error reported after Check Model (cmd-T) is simply "Syntax Error". There is nothing actionable with the message. It doesn't help the modeler even know where to begin.

Willing to share the model file privately.

macOS Vensim 8.1.1.
