Hello Zied,

 

You can find any of the input files from the Geochemical and Biogeochemical Reaction Modeling text in the GWB installation directory (commonly C > Program files > Gwb > Scripts > GBRM scripts). To load a thermo dataset into a GWB application, simply drag and drop the file. For more information on the drag and drop feature see section 1.7 of the GWB Essentials Guide.

 

Kind regards,

Solving for initial system.

(do you have any permission into this directory)

Hello Zied,

The error message you received is because you need to change your working directory to another location, where you have permission to write and save files.

In the top left corner of React and the other GWB programs you'll find the path to a folder - this is your working directory. When you double-click on an input file (a saved .rea script, for example) the working directory will be set to the location of that file. If you open a file saved on the desktop, for example, the directory will be set to the desktop. You can change the working directory by going to File -> Working directory and browsing to another location.

 

Kind regards,
