[Equest-users] how to open a damaged file

[Matthew Dubrovich]

The alternate input files should still be good and will not reflect any changes you made since the last time you ran those parametric runs.  Rename one of those alternate input files to the same name as your original input file.  Your model should open with all of the values associated with that parametric run.  You'll have to undo the parametric run changes to get back to your original model, but it's a lot less work than starting over from scratch.

Subject: [Equest-users] how to open a damaged file

I thought I read about this before however I could not find it from Archive folders. I tried to make plenum to "0" then my program crashed. I went to inp file to fixed. After couple of changes to get every thing revised, eQuest won't be able to open the file any more. It stopped at the title line. I still have all the inp files and alternates inp files. Just can't open it. Any recommendations?  Thanks a lot!
