Thank you very very much Dr. Andrea.

I have a question sir...
If I install the QE-6.2 on my supercomputer and run dos.x directly on the
NSCF outputs produced using QE-6.1 will it work properly.
Or I have to do VC-relax and NSCF again using QE-6.2.

Please suggest... Your answer will save a lot of time for time.

Thank you so so much for your precious time and knowledge.

Sincerely,
B S Bhushan
