Hi Peter, It sounds like you are using Hspice 1999.4 and you are trying to model a transmission line that has 10 or more conductors. This was a bug in the 1999.4 version. It was fixed in the 2000.2 version. The only "work around" is not to model transmission lines with greater than 9 conductors. Let me know if you have any other questions about this.
