<div class="gmail_quote"><br><br>Dear User(s), <div>I wanted to know how to convert an edited weather file presently in excel format , back into .bin format because in order to use pkaft processor from DOE2.2 we have to paste the data into a notepad which will change the alignment of the data as it will no longer be in the same way as it was when original data was converted from .bin format ( alignment as in within the specified column width) and changing the width maually for each column would be very tedious. Please help. Also , I want to know how to get the Custom template file they are talking of in the file I have attached alongwith. Awaiting an early reply.</div>

<p>Claudia,</p>
<p>I will try it. Until now I have been converting a .bin file into text file with DOE2 weather processor <span style="color:#1f497d;font-size:11pt"><font color="black">MKAFT, and opening the text file with Excel. The changes were made in Excel for a different elevation (affects AP, DB, WB, WS). The converted .bin file text file and the original NOAA/NCDC have different formats. Converting back to the NOAA/NCDC was tedious but I managed this once. I will not try doing it again. Your method seems easier.</font></span></p>
