[molpro-user] Desired MCSCF orbital moving out of active space

Dear Molpro users,
I am trying to generate orbitals using MULTI for use in a separate calculation. I have previously posted about this: http://www.molpro.net/pipermail/molpro-user/2012-July/004968.html (thank you for your responses) but now feel I have refined my problem. The problem I am experiencing is that an orbital that is needed for a particular (Rydberg) state in my separate calculation is constantly pushed above the active space orbitals every time I try to increase the active space to incorporate it. I use the same active space for the separate calculation as the MOLPRO one for generating the orbitals. For example:
31102110 CAS, the orbital I would like to be in the active space is highlighted by ****. It is the first virtual orbital after the active orbitals:

Does any one have any idea what may be causing this or what it is indicative of? I've tried a variety of orbital restrictions, increasing the CAS in other symmetries but the orbital constantly jumps up in everything I do.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
