Dear Paola,

Thank you very much for your help. I will try COMBNAME. Actually I need
approximately 45000 regions with individual readout of energy deposition
because I construct a model of very complicated cosmic-ray spectrometer
and the multi-pad silicon detector was only my first exercise. But I
understood that I couldn't even think about 45000 regions while FLUKA
can't read more than 9999 bodies...
Do I understand correctly that to obtain more than 20000 regions it is
enough to edit the file (DIMPAR) properly and than recompile FLUKA?

Best wishes,
Alexander
