I've been building an energy model in eQuest 3.63 and noticed that my .INP
file is empty and has a file size of zero bytes. I open my model via the
.PD2 file and all of the input data is there. I started the model through
the Design Development Wizard but have since made several modifications in
Detail Input mode so I don't want to go backward. I need to get an input
file record to include in my analysis documentation. Has anyone had this
problem and can you help me? Also, once I have entered a specified heating
and cooling capacity for equipment, is there a way I can go back to having
the program auto-size the equipment? Entering zero in the capacity box
doesn't give me access to sizing ratios and generally bounces the input back
to what I had before. Thanks in advance for any feedback

Hi Rick,
I am not very sure about the reason for a zero byte INP file, but for the
second issue you mentioned- Wherever you have entered the inputs for heating
and cooling capacity, just right click on the field and select the option
'Restore Default'. It'll automatically go back to the value before editing.
Hopefully this will help.

Sir:
Are you sure that you are looking at the correct.INP file? Two files are generated for .INP. One is always Zero bytes and I have no idea why. Look at your files again to see if another file exists.
