Balancing Factors

I am just learning to use the FRATAR program to do bi-proportional adjustment. I have learned how to run the program and have a sensible converged outcome.

I now would like to be able to output the final balancing factors. I cannot see any way of doing this. I have looked in the help structure for MATRIX, DISTRIBUTION and FRATAR but failed to find what I am looking for.

I want to work toward a process to in-fill a matrix. First, I need to calibrate a gravity model. I know how to build an initial matrix with a deterrence function. (I have done this in MATRIX). I know how to fit the initial matrix to trip-end targets (FRATAR). I now need to obtain the balancing factors so that I can specify the gravity model for use in estimation.

Many years ago, when I used TRIPS, there was a program (MVGRAM?) that could do this in two stages. 

I am Dr Graham Scholefield, University of Salford.
