Dear Gottfried,

I think you should take this up with Rigaku. They might have a re-formatting 
program for .ref files, and/or they may be able to tell you how to process the 
Saturn92 data with XDS (I can hardly imagine that they changed the format in a 
XDS-incompatible way).

But you paid for the machine, and that should entitle you to their service.

good luck,
Kay
