Dear Anthony,
Thanks a lot! I missed that file while visiting the
formats website.
But that would mean that the NY line in the nonbon
section should not be there (parm99.dat) because the
NY is set to be equivalent to N, right? (Their R and
E are the same, so it didn't matter.)
Thank you again for taking your time to help!
Best wishes,
Angela
