Dear Nichole,
 
Space between 4 and 2 does not make any sense and results in P 4/m m m symmetry.
 
BUT for sure spaces surrounding "/" should be removed and space groups symbol should as following: "P 42/n m c".
 
Note that S is not part of the space group symbol and is probably ignored by GSAS (is it?). Any way both ways (w/ and w/o S) give the same results which corresponds P42/nmc group with the centre of symmetry in the origin.

Subject: Rietveld question - EXPGUI

I'm trying to do some refinement on Zr-Y-O powders.  I keep getting an error for the space group P 42 / n m c S when I try to import the *.cif file for ICSD 90885 into EXPGUI. Can someone tell me why?
Nichole
