   I'm so sorry. Both fractint 17.1 AND 17.2 respond on the argument
   rleps=yes or 'rleps=yes' or "rleps=yes" with a humming sound and the
   message:
   Quote:	

   *** Error during startup:

   Oops. I couldn't understand the argument:
     rleps=yes

   (see the Startup Help screens or documentation for a complete
    argument list with descriptions)

   Unquote.

   What am I doing wrong. Is there a newer version that works with this
   option?

   There is no word about 'rleps' in the documentation either.

Kind Regards,

Henk.
