Re: error running type 160

[David Bradley <bradley@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Adriana,
  The error that you are seeing is a result of a division by zero 
somewhere (probably) in the Fortran code of Type160. The error may be a 
result of the inputs that you are sending the model. The only way to tell 
is to step through the simulation using the debugger. If you don't have a 
Fortran compiler, you should probably contact your distributor.
Kind regards,
  David
