You need to modify the Energy+.idd file which is located in directory that you installed EnergyPlus. Open the Energy+.idd file in notepad or another text editor and search for "Schedule:Compact," that should bring you to the object description for that field. If you scroll down, you will notice that the last A field is A4500. You need to add additional fields in order to load your file into IDF Editor, so copy a bunch of the lines before that last line and just paste them in a couple of times. The actual count on the field names is not important, just as long as more "A" fields are shown. There should be commas between each field and the last field should end with a semicolon.
