bader charges

Hi
As suggested by Andri, I went to http://theory.cm.utexas.edu/vtsttools/bader/vasp.php and made the changes to Main.F file and recompiled vasp. I then used C paw_GGA and B_h paw_GGA on a C42B8 unit cell, HIGH precision FFT grid and got the following Bader charge analysis.

It has 199.3691 electrons instead of 192 electrons. I guess it is including some of the core electons. The first 42 atoms are carbon and the last 8 boron atoms. If I use C paw_GGA and B paw_GGA I get zero charges on boron and the # of electrons is 192. Is there a way to correct this?
