 This  is  an example of simulation with population data.  It is a con-
 tinuation of Simulation Example 1.

 First, during the Simulation Step, values of the covariate WT are sim-
 ulated,  as  well  as DV values, as PK-defined items SIMWT.  Normally-
 distributed values of ETA(3) are used.  Values of  CL  are  calculated
 based on SIMWT.  SIMWT replaces WT in the table file, and, because the
 ONLYSIM option is used, tabled values of SIMWT are simulated values.

 Second, this process is repeated 10 times, using  the  same model,  by
 means  of  the   SUBPROBLEMS option.  The table file contains the con-
 catenated output of all the subproblems, and is the simulated data for
 20 individuals.
