Is it wishful thinking that by entering in a certain key word within the name
of the space within the Detailed Interface, that Equest will automatically
apply internally defined loads and schedules based on that space type.
Below is why I think this:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

Space Type dependent inputs by recognizing a certain key word in the User Input
Name. For example:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
