Hi Raphael, Thank you very much. I tried yesterday with different origins and I have changed the REFINE(IDXREF) keyword several times as to refine BEAM, POSITION, DISTANCE... I have to keep trying because fo far I didn't succeed. I will get back to you once I find what the problem is. Thank you once again! Best, Almudena El vie., 29 nov. 2019 a las 12:56, R.
