Dear Prof. Blaha
Thanks a lot for your kind reply.
I thought it may be just counting of the raws  of the occupied bands in the occupancy column .
     In fact, I have never used hf functional before and I wanted to test it's effect on the energy gap calculations.
Anyway, I deeply thank you for your  help and your useful advises.
Kind regards
Tarek Hammad.

 I would like to carry out hf calculations. This implies to construct the
 inhf file. for that, I need to know the number of occupied (partially
 occupied ) bands.

 As I read in different sources including UG of wien2k the number of
 occupied bands can be extracted from the occupancy column existed in
 case.scf file as indicated below.

 However, I am confused on how can I detect this number, for instance,
 may I just count the number of occupied bands, if so, it should be (11 +
 1) bands.

How do you know that the number of occupied bands SHOULD be 11 ???
How do you come to this number ??

PS: A HF calculation with 200-250 bands will be VERY expensive. In
particular, since unscreened HF converges very slowly with respect to
k-points.
Why would you like to do a HF calculation ???


 Otherwise, considering the first column as shown, the number of occupied
 bands could be (184+1) bands !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
