[texhax] Regarding errors with use of longtable in thesis

[Arvind Marathe]

Hello,

I am trying to use package longtable to get a really long table in my
thesis. However, at the final stage of converting ps to pdf, i get the
following error:

--------------------------------------------------
Error: /undefined in nd

I tried checking with longtable examples given on net, and the error
persists, so it is not a problem with the syntax i used. If i put the
table in a test.tex file, and try to get pdf, i can get test.pdf. So
it is probably clashing with something else i defined in my main.tex?
Here is the header of my main.tex file:

Is there something in the above definitions that is causing the error
mentioned? Any help appreciated.
