Dear Lyudmila,
   Thanks for your kind response. To flip the spin of an atom, we edit in
case.inst or else perform instgen_lapw. In the case.inst file, I do not
found any forces. And also, the forces are observed in case.scf (after
save_lapw) which is an scf files not input. But,you mentioned that it may
be possible to take the input file containing forces (scf), and replace
forces. Anyhow, I replaced the forces from this scf files as suggested and
tried to arrange them. But could not make use of xcrysden to view the
structure with arrows.
By the way, after save_lapw, the saved file use to be very large containing
the details of calculations. In that regard, will the replacement of forces
only can solve the problem.
Kindly help me to sort out this problem.
Thank you
M. P. Ghimire
