Dear Eleanor, Even if Denzo, Scalepack and HKL suite have been extensively developed, their file formats have not changed in many years. However, there are intermediate programs between Scalepack and structure solution ones that can potentially be a source of problem. For example, ctruncate for some time was rejecting centrosymmetric reflections when fed Scalepack output. In this case, the error message suggests that the problem may be related to asymmetric unit transformations, but, as stated earlier, Scalepack has not changed the asymmetric unit it outputs. So I doubt the problem lies in Scalepack as such. Zbyszek Otwinowski
