Dear Iffefit group.,
 
I am just starting to know this forum, and I read some messages from time to time and find it very useful., I have a question on the Linear Combination Fitting--using to fit my sample with a few standards.
I am experiencing that on some iterations of the fit (which gives good reduced chi square value, / good R Factor values) but shows  the following, as an example:
Standard  Weight                             E0
X             0.267(0.056)                     0
Y              0.249 (0.017)                   0
M             0.220 (0.015)                   0
N             0.428 (0.055)                   0
P             0.000 (0.082)                   0
 
Now, I am confused about this "P" standard...as it shows 0.000 (weight);  should I even choose this iteration, or will go to the the next one?
 
And the next question is: if the addition of all weigths is 0.999 or 1.164 --- can I consider them? What I mean is: what is the range of acceptance of sum of all weights (I am chqing the check box for force weights to sum to 1)?
 
thanks for your anticipated help.
