Thanks Bruce; 
Okay i assume, useRealRAS should be 1 for scanner RAS; 
Two questions: 
1. If my control points are in scanner RAS, then can I use them directly as long as I set 
useRealRAS to 1 in the control.dat file ?
2. Can useRealRAS variable be only 0/1 or do you have a different value for surface RAS?

Thanks
Mehul

Thanks Bruce; I noticed that in the control.dat file the second last line is
"useRealRAS 0"
just curious to know if info is used by recon-all or is only used by the
viewer ? 
Thanks
Mehul

            Hi Folks, Once we make control points in tkmedit,
            they are stored in the
            file control.dat
            Are these control points stored in RAS co-ordinate
            system ?
            If not what is the co-ordinate system used to store
            the control points
            Thanks
