<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>I am
having difficulty with some modified weather data. I’ve taken the
“.bin” weather file, converted it to a text file (with the DOE2
weather utilities programs), made some dry bulb temperature modifications,
converted it back to a “.bin” file (with the same utilities
programs). Everything seems to check out…there are no known
problems with the conversion, and the original and modified “.bin”
files are the same size (146 kb). I have dropped the new weather file
into the eQUEST weather folder and changed the reference in my eQUEST file
(Project Data, File References, Weather File) to the newly created weather
file. When I attempt to perform a simulation, the program stops (freezes)
before getting thru any of the simulation.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
