Hi everybody, Nobody is trying to be prickly (at all)!
The topic has been started with particular case for Panalytical machines, and, again, a 'minute quote' from archive: "This is obtain from the help of X'Pert HighScore Plus..." As the first instance question is so the same kind of answer is coming... And I would never made a feedback if I was not curious to the topic too. I remember following branch clearly: http://www.mail-archive.com/rietveld_l%40ill.fr/msg04948.html And to be really pricky and boring=), see http://www.mail-archive.com/rietveld_l%40ill.fr/msg04979.html That makes me think again that there is nothing new under the sun... Between, I like to send postcards=) Cheers, Artem 07.04.2014 19:00, "Whitfield, Pamela S." <whitfiel...@ornl.gov> >Now, now no need to be prickly > > To be fair to Julian he didn't ask what the polarization was - he asked how > it was calculated.
