I tried to import EXTREL\CENTSIDH.CDF into Chemstation, since
that looks most like the data that I'm trying to create. Chemstation
has a problem with that, too. So I guess Chemstation is "broken".
But that's like trying to tell Microsoft that IE is broken. I'll
just have to change my format to make Chemstation happy.
Thanks for the offer of testing out my file. I'll send that under
separate cover to just you, so as not to bombard the whole list
with it.
