[daip] MODVF problem on Intel Mac

[cgm]

Hi,

I am having a strange problem with MODVF; it doesn't appear to work in 
31DEC08 or 31DEC09 on an intel mac. Inputs and error message are below.

It seems to be a problem parsing the input file regardless of the actual 
inputs or contents.

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Regards,
Carole Mundell
