Dear Pro. Blaha,
          Thank you very much for replying me.
          I have known that the forces and SO cannot use simutaneously, but
I still have a question about that if it is OK to add an external magnetic
field while executing min_lapw. I mean edit the case.inorb file to add a
magnetic field as describing in the UG and using -orb switch.
I have searched the UG and some of the mailing-list, although, there seemed
no answers to the question.
          Looking forward to your reply.


Best regards,
