Hi:

This problem has occurred before, where one uses lookup functions and
it
gives the error:
Part::pspec: Part specification 1. is neither an integer nor a list of
integers. More

But in my case, the solution given there doesn't work  :-(

The extracted code is as following:
With[{PiTable = Import["MyPiTemp.dat", "Table"]}, PiFunc[i_Integer,
j_Integer] := PiTable[[i, j]]]
With[{TauTable = Import["MyTauTemp.dat", "Table"]}, TauFunc[i_Integer,
j_Integer] := TauTable[[i, j]]]


\!\(\(S1[q_]\  := \ â??\+\(l =
      1\)\%\(LastTerm[r]\)\ \((\((2\ l + 1)\)\/\(l\ \((l + 1)\)\))\)
\((an[l]\
\ PiFunc[l, \ q]\  + \ bn[l]\ \ TauFunc[l, \
q])\);\)\[IndentingNewLine]


\!\(\(Iperp[q_?IntegerQ] := \ \((Abs[S1[q]])\)\^2;\)\)

Plot[Iperp[q], {q, 1, 50}]


and the errors are:
Part::pspec: Part specification 1. is neither an integer nor a list of
integers. Moreâ?¦
Plot::plnr: Iperp[q] is not a machine-size real number at q = 1..
Moreâ?¦
Plot::plnr: Iperp[q] is not a machine-size real number at q = 2.98778.
Moreâ?¦
Plot::plnr: Iperp[q] is not a machine-size real number at q = 5.15563.
Moreâ?¦


As one can see, the matrix is imported in form of table from external
file. Using "With" I made it a function inserted in S1[q], where an[l]
and bn[l] are calculated separately. If I give any integer value for
'q', S1[q] as well as Iperp[q] gives numerical value, that means it
calculates it, but by plotting gives such error? I tried writing 'Hold'
for matrix element and using ReleaseHold[Plot...] to get the argument
on
the right side evaluated first than on the left side, but in vain.

Any urgent help in this case will be appreciated.
Thanx very much in advance!

Regards,
nandan
