Ok, looks like good news - nothing is seriously wrong. So we can guess you
are looking at a matrix "size-problem"(?)

Sure. :-)

You may have misunderstood me. I meant, as a work around, can you recast
your equations in a way that avoids performing the transpose of a matrix?
Sometimes this is possible and is almost always desirable. Note: Are you
able to use the "inline matrix transpose" rather than by creating a new
matrix? If this is possible it will definately save you some time.

I don't suppose you are doing anything particuarily wrong... I can
not guess without first seeing your particular problem and code first.
best,
Toby
