If you cut and paste the error message into your email, then it looks like the file path that your input file is using has a space at the end of the last folder name and the file name has a space at the beginning. If the actual file and folder don’t have those spaces then eQuest won’t be able to find them. I’ve chased my tail for similar errors with other programs too before finding out that an errant space key strike caused the problem. If you find this is the case, I would recommend fixing the reference in the eQuest INP file and not renaming the file and folder.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>If it isn’t that, I’m baffled by this – someone from James Hirsch would know better, especially the error code.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:7.5pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Jeremy R.
