Re^3: Error about RSURFACE:GRADIENT OUT OF RANGE

Dear Prof. Granovsky

Thank you for your comment and the attached files. I found that the calculation for  test.inp which has nonvdw(1)=3,6,5,6,6,16 reached at normal end. But, a new file, tets2.inp with nonvdw(1)=3,6 gave the same result as test.inp. Could you tell me
why you added 5,6,6,16 to nonvdw(1).
One more question, there is no AUTOFV in test.inp. Is this keyword really not necessary?

Kind regards,
F. Mohri
