Dear Dr. Masami Kanzaki,

thank you very much for your contribution to COD!

Wonderful, great news! I can confirm that the files are in the database
as expected.

This should work. If you edit the previously deposited files via the Web
interface http://www.crystallography.net/cod, using the "Manage
depositions" and then "View your depositions" links, then you should be
able to update the deposited structures, adding the
_diffrn_ambient_pressure data item, and after that all new depositions
should succeed.

Don't mention!
