Hello Edward,

Thanks a lot for your reply and sorry for the delayed response.

1. You guessed absolutely correctly that I don't have data for the second
magnetic field yet. Having said that, I do have access to the 500 MHz
magnet except that my data with the 600 Mhz machine (with cryoprobe) was
not too great. I am worried about the quality of data from the 500 MHz non
cryoprobe spec.

2. I am indeed running the latest version of relax (2.1.2). The stage 2 of
palmer.py keeps failing as I reported in my original email. I believe it
might have something to do with the naming of the spin ids. it is just a
hunch though. I am using only residue numbers as yet instead of actual
residue names.

3. I got the farthest by running mf_multimodel.py followed by modsel.py. I
am confused though about the diffusion tensor optimization part. If I run
the script, how will the script know about the model selection and and
elimination process that has already taken place. Is there a way I can tell
that to the diff_min.py to not worry about selection and elimination but
use the results from modsel.py ? Can I load the results ?

4. I am certainly hoping to find a way to get an automated script or set of
scripts that perfectly handle the data at single magnetic field although
quite rightly data from two magnetic fields ought to be used whenever
possible. If I can do that, I will love to make it available as a part of
the relax sample scripts.

Forgive me if some of my queries sound too beginner level but any help at
this stage will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Shantanu S. Bhattacharyya
