Rats keep crashing when using grparm

Hi everyone,

I have noticed with RATS that everytime I try to generate graphs with the grparm function importing styles, the program just crashes. Generating graphs works fine when I do not try to import a style.

I was wondering if this could be due to a corrupted version of RATS, or because of an error in my code? I have attached all the relevant files to see if this helps.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have tried this on three machines now and the graphs won't generate.

Edit file.txt using RATS and re-save it. We had some problems with processing the styles file that depended upon the software used to create it. (That's been fixed with 8.2).

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your awesome feedback as always! Just a quick question - should I open the txt file in RATS, then save the file as a txt file again (but using RATS) and then run the code as it already stands? I tried doing this but the program would stop working again.

I am quite new to using RATS, so sorry for all of the elementary questions! :-)

What type of machine are you running on?

Hi Tom,

I am using a dual Windows/Mac operating system. I am using RATS in Windows 7 Professional. The computer itself is a MacBook Pro.

Thanks! :-)
