Databases created with 'formatdb' (BLAST) can be used by the BLAST+ search tools. A possible work-around for you would be to use the "legacy_blast.pl" script that comes with BLAST+. It takes the BLAST cmdline options and translates them to a call to BLAST+ tools. If you renamed it "blastall" with a symlink, it might just work? --Torsten Seemann --Victorian Bioinformatics Consortium, Dept.
