[Limdep Nlogit List] question regarding simulated probabilities in Ordered logit

Dear sir/madam,

I have a question regarding the simulation of probabilities with an ordered logit model. The manual specifies the command "Simulate", or "Simulation", followed up by "Scenario", where the values of the independent variable are specified.

My problem has to do with a dataset on passenger satisfaction, and there are several independent variables that I included in the model. The variable 'MIN' is one of them, which indicates the delay minutes that a traveller had during his trip.
My idea is to simulate the probability for each satisfaction outcome (0 to 4) for a couple of delay minute levels, ranging from 0 to 80, to see how the probability for a certain satisfaction rating changes with delay minutes. I have followed the manual to try to correctly specify the code, however, whatever I try, I get the error message "Error    999: The specification ;SCE is not recognized."

My code goes as follows:

ORDERED;
LHS=SAT;
RHS = one, FEM, FREQ, MIN, STAND, INFO, IC, BCANCEL, CANCEL, AGE1, AGE3, MG3, COMB, PERB, LEI, COMN, RED;
logit;
Simulation;Scenario:MIN={*}0;Outcome=*$

Looking forward to your reply,

Fredrik Monsuur
