Hello,

Unfortunately the forum does not like some character combinations that are needed for OPTMODEL code.

The problem seems to be with "less than or equal", if you write it in symbols it disappears and also text following it. You might try posting your code again replacing "less than or equal" with something like LE or so. And check the preview if something else causes problem.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
