Hello -

Has anyone had any problems reformatting Genbank release 82.0
for GCG?  When I ran the genbanktogcg command, I got a series
of errors that prevented the database from formatting
properly.  Here are the error messages:

---

Now, when my script got to the seqcat stage, none of the
subsections with errors got processed:

---

 gb_pl                
 gb_pr                
 gb_ro                
 gb_st                
 gb_sy                
 gb_un                
 gb_vi                

 SEQCAT complete:

   Categories: 13
      Entries: 71,948

 ACCESSIONNUMBERS complete

               Input files: 13
               Input lines: 3,518,239
         Accession numbers: 93,207

               Output file: "/usr/local/data/gcgdata/gcggenbank/genbank.exclude"

What I need to know is how to get the database formatted
properly. If anyone knows of a fix, or if the genbank flat files
have been corrected, please (!) let me know.

Thanks in advance,
