Dear Sir,

    I have done the same thing. But still then I am not getting the
expected result.

  actually, I want to score the dose due to mono-energetic electron beam
in Kev to few Mev range. For that I want to sample source same like
'SOURCE NO. 1' in EGSnrc code (egs_inprz). It is said in the manual that
for simulating Kev range electron I have to put on the single scattering
mode.
    In 'MULSOPT'card I have set Type:GLOBEMF,Min step:0.2,optimal:0.2,
SS:ON,#scattering:100, E<Moliere: on.Others options are kept at
default value. Is this setting is Correct or I have to change it?
    I have set ECUT and PCUT as 1 Kev.
  By doing these also, I am not getting expected result.

So, if you kindly give some hints regarding the above setting and the
design of Source same like SOURCE NO.1 as EGSnrc(i.e. point source on axis
incident from front) then it will be helpful to me.

  Thanking you in advance.
