Each label specifies to which field the conditions given in that column apply. Each cell below the label specifies a condition such as "&gt;3" or "&lt;9". An equality condition can be given by simply specifying a value, e. g. "3" or "Jody". For a record to be considered it must satisfy all conditions in at least one of the rows of <parameter>criteria</parameter>.</para>

        <para><function>SIMTABLE</function> returns one of the values in the given argument list depending on the round number of the simulation tool. When the simulation tool is not activated, <function>SIMTABLE</function> returns <parameter>d1</parameter>.</para>
        <para>With the simulation tool and the <function>SIMTABLE</function> function you can test given decision variables. Each <function>SIMTABLE</function> function contains the possible values of a simulation variable. In most valid simulation models you should have the same number of values <parameter>dN</parameter> for all decision variables.  If the simulation is run more rounds than there are values defined, <function>SIMTABLE</function> returns #N/A! error (e.g. if A1 contains `=<function>SIMTABLE</function>(1)' and A2 `=<function>SIMTABLE</function>(1,2)', A1 yields #N/A! error on the second round).</para>
        <para>The successive use of the simulation tool also requires that you give to the tool at least one input variable having RAND() or any other RAND&lt;distribution name&gt;() function in it. On each round, the simulation tool iterates for the given number of rounds over all the input variables to reevaluate them. On each iteration, the values of the output variables are stored, and when the round is completed, descriptive statistical information is created according to the values.</para>
