[molpro-user] How to read orbitals file of other molpro jobs ?

[Dr Seth OLSEN]

Hi,

You may find it saver to use the -2 directive, rather than -W.  In 
this case, the named directory is both permanent and RUNTIME 
repository for the wavefunction file.  Somtimes, use of -W does not 
work, i.e. the file is not copied to the permanent storage directory 
until after the calculation (this is a problem if the job fails for a 
strange reason like, say, a power failure).

It is also good to get in the habit of using the MATROP facility to 
write orbitals to ASCII files.  These can then be read back in via 
MATROP again should other options fail.  


Cheers,

Seth
