Thanks for the reply,
I have attached one of the files representing a frame from the
simulation.
The files would have been written by software designed in house at
my university.

If anyone could spot anything wrong with the file that would be greatly
appreciated.  It seems to conform with the legacy standard.

Many Thanks
Hayan
