Naomi,

You are right! MAGBOLTZ has the data base only for the isopropanol, you 
still can use both "PROPANOL" and "ISOPROPANOL" and also many other 
"synonyms"  when discribing the gas, but they all will give you the same 
result, as seen from the MAGBOLTZ code below:

        ELSEIF(INPCMP(I,'PROPANOL')+
      -      INPCMP(I,'2-PROP#ANOL')+
      -      INPCMP(I,'ISO-PROP#ANOL')+
      -      INPCMP(I,'ISOPROP#ANOL')+
      -      INPCMP(I,'ISOPROPYL-#ALCOHOL')+
      -      INPCMP(I,'C3H7OH').NE.0)THEN

That is confusing. Thanks figuring this out!
