Dear Matt and Juerg,

I tried both MEDIUM and HIGH print levels, it does not appear there. It is 
an interesting guess, because I do get a lot of warning messages with the 
higher print level which suggest that multiple operations are not 
implemented in semi-empirical calculations. I'll try the same input with 
another method to see if it works or not.

Best Regards,
Mario
