Dear all,
I am sorry if I misstated the problem. The roundig issue is with NONMEM software not with R. But the suggestions are helpful.

Unfortunately the "rounding effect" (which I assumed was related to the automatic conversion from integer to numeric) is only going to show up above 2147483647L, so I question whether you really demonstrated a solution to what I understood was the fundamental problem.

Hi

Dear group,

I am trying to prepare a NONMEM friendly dataset for population PK
analysis. My patient IDs are 10 digit long and NONMEM is losing precison
and rouding the last couple of digits.  I need to generate unique
Patient
IDs fromt he current 10-digit IDs.  Ihave total 250 subjects so I
appreciate if anybody can suggest me a way to code this in R.

I would start with

?abbreviate
and check uniqueness with
?unique or ?duplicated

Regards
Petr
