How to specify external basis set in MOLCAS input file?

I have downloaded 6-311++G(3df,3pd) basis set for MOLCAS from basis set exchange library. My molecule has H, C, O and N. I want to learn how to specify the basis set in the input file after geometry section.

Any help from anyone will be highly appreciated.....

Re: How to specify external basis set in MOLCAS input file?

Previously, I have optimized aug-cc-pVDZ basis set. Now, I want to optimize using 6-311++ G(3df,3pd) basis set. I found error: COORD keyword is not found....
What is wrong with my input file...
