Dear All,

I am trying to import the following file into CCP4:

    1    1    225887.3652    0.0098  180.0000
    1    1    411468.0879    0.0482  270.0000
    1    1    5 4042.5725    0.2834   45.0000
    1    1    6  825.5930    0.9070  180.0000
    1    1    7-6106.0249    0.1513  315.0000
    1    1    8-5119.4897    0.2025   90.0000
.....

The columns are H K L F FOM PHI. Some F's are so large that there is no
whitespace between them and the last miller indice, and some of the F's
are negative. Nevertheless I thought the following user-defined format
would work, but the import fails. Can anyone tell me what is wrong?
