so why do the poor users have to check this everytime, rather than the developers adding two lines of code ...
yes, I agree, but it's not up to me.
Still, you get what you pay for :)
@Jan: Don't confuse quality with price. I seem to recall that adding a blank line to the end of a Gaussian input file causes problems.
Noel - Point taken!
