Hi,
i suppose you invoked dataset technique in your calculation, which means that you used input variable ' ndtset' and 'jdtset'. In such a case, you can first find out at which dataset your calculation is stopped by looking up the number of 'jdtset'. Then you simply remodify your input file by starting the calculation from the dataset before that number. For example, if jdtset=4 in *_STATUS file and the total number of datasets you set is 10 (which means ndtset=10), you should change ndtset in your input file to 7 (10-3=7) as well as input jdtset= 4 5 6 7 8 9 10, since the first 3 datasets have already been computed.
I hope this may help.

Cheers.

Hong Fang.
