Hey There,
This one's a bit tricky but could be an easy fix...
Sometimes, especially when dealing with help files from older versions of SAAM II in 2.3.3, you might encounter an issue where the file won't open and you get this message:
"file has been damaged"
Start by opening your file in a text editor (I personally use Notepad++). This will let you see the file's textual content. Without going into the nitty-gritty of each line (maybe that's a topic for another post!), I recently encountered an instance where a parameter wasn't assigned properly.
Here's what I found:
PARAM [blank space] was defined incorrectly as it can't be a blank space!
Whereas below, PARAM Ffast was defined correctly.
In this case, you can either manually add the parameter name "Fslow" or just delete that block, then save the changes. For context, in this specific situation, the user was working with a file containing over 100 compartments related to dosimetry PBPK. So, it was definitely more time-efficient to troubleshoot than to start from scratchew.
