Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Parametric runs

["Michael J. Witte" <mjwitte@xxxxxxxx>]

Also, ##include does not work with spaces in the path, so that could be an 
issue as well.  

If you are not aware of the epmdet output file, this shows the full details of 
the ep-macro processing.  Any macro errors will be in this file.  

I assume you are using the EP-Launch group feature to do this.  Does your 
master input file have a .imf exension?  If not, the ## macro commands will not 
be processed.

There is an example of using ##include in AbsorptionChiller_Macro.imf, but we 
do not have an example of a parametric input.
 
If you still cannot figure this out, please upload your grp and imf files to 
the files area in the yahoo group.
