Hints on Reducing Disk Space Requirements: 

     1. When in the"Decoder" under the "Global" menu, change the "Printout" options
          to reduce the amount of information that Algor writes to file. 

     2. Use the following settings under "Printout":
               IPSF:       0
               IPRI:        2 
               NPB:       1
               IDC:        1 
               IVC:        1 
               IAC:        1

     3. This reduced my storage requirement from 1.528 MB to 1.034 MB, which
         included running an analysis for 20 time steps and dumping a bitmap file to
         disk.

     4. Please let me know if this does not relieve your storage problems.

Dr. Corley recommends working off the C: drive on the machine that you are
using to aviod running out of space.  If you do this and still have problems with
storage, Dr. Corley and I will come to your computer and try to figure out what
is going on.
