Dear Marek,
Follow your tip, I went to design my PCF with optiMODE. I was going to do it base on OptiMode_User_Reference pdf file (section: OptiMode Tutorial 5- Photonic Crystal Fiber and VB script). but the script given by the tutorial return error and cant made the PCF structure. here is the exact script of the tutorial and at the end is the returned error,

VB scripting: ‘Microsoft VBScript runtime error’ Line:25,char:4, ‘Type mismatch: ‘[string: “Error: Unknown varia”]”

*Line 25 is refered to: If YLevel > – windowsz / 2 Then

what is wrong with it?
