Dear Jorissen Kevin,
I am very sorry about my mistake and thank you for the reply. I check the 
code in SRC_sgropu and find there is only one choice for the space gruop 
141. In fact in the International Tables of Crystallography, 2 origin 
choices are provided to this space gruop. WIWN2k only take the 2nd one. In 
ICSD data, we should select the one labeled I41/amd Z, not I41/amd S.
Your reply confirms this. Thanks again.

Sincerely,

Yu-Hui Dong
