Army Composition Rules

I'm throwing together some Data File for a relatively new system, and
I'm having trouble with the army composition rules. I've got
composition groups Sqds, Indv, Chrs, and Vhcl. There can be one unit
of Indv, Chrs, or Vhcl for each unit of Sqds.

So here's what I've tried:
Sqds@>=Indv+Chrs+Vhcl,Indv@?,Chrs@?,Vhcl@?
This appears to give me validation errors if the number of MODELS in
Indv is equal to or greater than the number of MODELS in Sqds.

Sqds:urelu>=Indv+Chrs+Vhcl,Indv@?,Chrs@?,Vhcl@?
ABcreator doesn't even want to accept this, telling me there's
something wrong with the line. I haven't gotten any instance of ?
rel? to work, though it seems that would be the solution to my
problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm also wondering how to get AB to go to the next line in the
comments or notes field of an option.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The problem with the composition rule you're using is that you are MIXING
the syntax from V1 and V2. If you use "sqds:urelu...", then all other
groups must use the SAME syntax. This means that the "Indv" group has to
use the "indv:any" syntax, as do the other remaining groups.

If you insert a ';' (semi-colon) character within any of the notes
sections, AB will treat this as the insertion of a newline.

Thanks, Rob
