I would be glad to help. Could you please be a bit more specific formulating the problem itself?
Kind regards,
Alex Granovsky

>I am working on aromatic system related to porphyrin. So, i decided to check unsubstituted porphyrin by CASSCF/XMCQDPT(CASSCF(4,4)/6-311G(d,p)//b3lyp/6-311G(d,p)). I need only 1st and 2nd excited states. Their formation can be described by four orbital approach. Indeed, such approximation quite reasonable, because HOMO,HOMO-1 are separated from another HOMO's by big enough energy gap. All intense transitions in UV-Vis spectra rise from transitions HOMO->LUMO/LUMO+1, HOMO-1->LUMO/LUMO+1. In literature, people used CASPT2(4,4) method and showed such active space can be used for porphyrins (actually 4,4 is the smallest active space for such mycrocycles). So i did SS-CASSCF(4,4)+ntrack and caught all single electron excitations (4 for such active space). After optimization my 1st state was ground state and all single electron excited states were states from 2 to 5. Afterwards, i performed SA-CASSCF(4,4) over 5 lowest states ($drt wstate(1)=1,1,1,1,1 $end ) and got interesting picture(all configuration with zerro's coefficients were removed):
