Dear Simon,

Unfortunately it is not quite that simple. LinkResonances will not assign 
a previously unassigned spectrum for you. To do that you have to tell the 
program specifically what each peak should be assigned to, either by hand 
or by subroutine.

LinkResonances only comes in as part of the format conversion process, 
linking the new information correctly into the existing project.  When you 
use FormatConverter to load a peak list that is already assigned, in the 
external file. the program first stores the assignment strings with the 
peaks. These assignment strings can be quite exotic, especially for 
SPARKY, so ti is hard to decide up front which atoms they are supposed to 
match. LinkResonances then convertes the external text strings to proper 
CCPN assignments, complete with links to MolSystem Atoms, Resonances, 
etc.

Loading the NMRSTAR file should give you a shift list. You can set this to 
be the shift list for the spectra you want, and then assign the peaks 
using the shift list. You can also generate synthetic peaks lists with the 
shift list, and use the synthetic peaks asa a guide for assignment. Etc. 
The process is the smae as when you acquire a new spectrum, possibly at a 
different temperature, and want to assign it using your previous spectra 
as a starting point.

Yours,

Rasmus
