Hi, I managed to fix the problem with the header. But another error__._,_.___
keeps occuring and I couldn't find the reason why this happens.
This what I got
** Severe ** Invalid Weather Line at date=1996/ 1/ 1 Hour#= 1 Min#=60
** ~~~ ** Partial line read; Remainder of line=999,0.999,999
** Fatal ** Error in Reading Weather Data
Why is that weather line invalid ? I have put everything according the
the data dictionary.
Thank you.
Regards,
William Yap
