[TRNSYS-users] file close error

Dear Krishna,

I think that this problem is caused by a type that is reading something 
at the end of the simulation, maybe a temporary file like a summary 
created during the simulation, and finds a conflict.  I had seen a 
similar problem when a simulation was stopped before the end of the 
simulation, the temporary file was created but was not deleted, and then 
the next time that the project was run it caused a conflict.
I would recommend deleting the summary files that are created in your 
simulation, and try running the simulation again.
If this does not work, please feel free to send me your project files 
and I will be glad to take a look at them.
Best regards,

Diego
