cdsSpice debugging!

Hi,
I need trouble shooting help in cdsSpice!!!

My netlist.c file
=================
*nmos transistor amplifier
..include "./FILE.m"
vin 1 0 ac 1 sin(0.8 0.7 1G 0.0 0.0)
vdd 4 0 dc=3.3
R0 4 2 100
c0 2 0 1.1p
m1 2 1 0 cmosn
..tran 0.25ns 10ns 0ns

My amp_mc.s
===========
sim netlist
keep all
sweep time from 0ns to 200ns by 10ns
go
get tran
loop y from 0 to 200 by 10
set time=y
print v(2)
endloop

As you can see I am just trying to print the transient o/p
voltages at different points in time!
The error I am getting is with respect to the model file that
I have included which is a tsmc 0.18u level 11 model.

The simulator doesnt recognise many of the model parameters
like UC, U0 etc!!

ERROR OUTPUT:
============
SPICE2 EXECUTION ...
0*ERROR*: NODE NUMBERS ARE MISSING
CHECK LINE 3 IN THE SPICE INPUT FILE
(EITHER cdsSpiceFinal OR THE GIVEN SPECIFIED GO FILE)
0*ERROR*: MUTUAL INDUCTANCE REFERENCES ARE MISSING
CHECK LINE 5 IN THE SPICE INPUT FILE
(EITHER cdsSpiceFinal OR THE GIVEN SPECIFIED GO FILE)
.....
.....
and so on

0*ERROR*: UNKNOWN DATA CARD: U0
CHECK LINE 9 IN THE SPICE INPUT FILE
(EITHER cdsSpiceFinal OR THE GIVEN SPECIFIED GO FILE)

The model file is according to the cdsSpice conventions like
no space b4 an "=" symbol
& to represent continuation..etc!

Please let me know where the problem is and what should
be done!

If I recall well cdsSpice has been frozen since a while and I don't
think it supports a 0.18u tech. So unless you have good reasons to
use it, you're better off using a better alternative. may be you have
access to spectre or hspice ... If yes, go ahead and use and repost
if you need help.
One way to test this, is to use a level 3 (use anyone since this is
for test purposes only) and make sure the line where the "m1" is
declared is correct.
