 Convert \code{fd} or \code{basisfd} Objects to \code{fdPar} Objects

 \description{
-If the input is an \code{fd} object, default parameters are added to convert
-it to an \code{fdPar} object.  If a \code{basisfd} object,  it is first
-converted to an \code{fd} object with a square coefficient matrix of
-zeros, and then converted to a \code{fdPar} object.

+If a \code{basisfd} object,  it is first converted to an \code{fd} object 
+with a \code{nbasis} by \code{ncurve} coefficient matrix of zeros,

 \usage{
-fdParcheck(fdPar)
+fdParcheck(fdPar, ncurve)
 }
 \arguments{
   \item{fdPar}{A \code{basisfd}, \code{fd} or a \code{fdPar} object.}
+  \item{ncurve}{The number of curves or functions for which the basis
+  object is to be used in their representation.  If missing, an error
+  message is displayed and computation terminated.}
+}
+\details{
+  The previous version of this function did not include the argument
+  \code{ncurve}, and set up an \code{fd} object with a square
+  matrix of zeros.  This could cause an error in many of the 
+  functions that called it.

 Returns a \code{fdPar} object.
