checkCIF procedure

PROC-NAME: REFLT01 Type_1

PURPOSE: To check that _reflns_number_total is less than or equal to the _diffrn_reflns_number.

PROCEDURE:
TEST

IF _reflns_number_total > _diffrn_reflns_number
issue ALERT B
   "Alert B The number of symmetry-independent reflections cannot exceed the total number of reflections measured"

The total number of reflections measured originally by the diffractometer should be given under _diffrn_reflns_number. Any subsequent set of reflections derived from this must, logically, be a subset of the total reflections measured. Therefore, the reported number of unique reflections given with _reflns_number_total must be less than (or possibly equal to) the number given under _diffrn_reflns_number. Check for typographical errors.
