Chun Kwong, By setting NP to 51, your source code is going to always look for 51 parameters. If you want to have your Type accept a variable number of parameters, you need to change the variable NP to NPMAX in the parameter statement (you'll have to change the variable in a number of places. Then, during the initialization time of your Type, you need to set the actual (as opposed to the maximum possible) number of parameters for your simulation - probably by setting a new variable called nPars to INFO(4). INFO(4) carries the number of parameters that were found in the input file. You can look at Type14 in the standard source code to see an example of how a variable number of parameters might be handled. Cheers, David
