contains the model inputs in a text file that can be opened with any text

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Hi all,<br>
<br>
I wrote about a week ago how to model a radiant floor system heated by a
heat-pump & ground loop.<br>
<br>
I received some answers--thanks! and have set up a test model with a
loop-to-loop heat pump type chiller, lake/well loop and induction coils.
However, when I run the program, it crashes. I get an error message
stating that details are in a .sin file, but I can't find software to open or
read the file, so I have no idea why the file won't run. <br>
<br>
Any assistance on how to read the .sin file, or changing the file so that it
will run would be greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br clear=all>
