I don't know what you have tried, but the steps I follow are the next:

1.- Set the filetype with something like this in your vimrc file (I  
asume all your files ending with .mod are AMPL files):

     au BufRead,BufNewFile *.mod set filetype=ampl

2.- Place your syntax file, ampl.vim, inside "~/.vim/syntax/" (or the  
windows equivalent).

3.- I think after that Vim will load the syntax file, but if I'm wrong  
you can add the following to your vimrc file:

     au! Syntax ampl source ~/.vim/syntax/ampl.vim

Hope that helps,
Israel
