Dear George,

I really appreciate your kind offer but I have just solved the problem.

To all that may have the same issue in the future, I should say that in my case the problem was related to the use of SHELXPRO. I was not using it properly to transform the chains read by SHELXL (numbered) to chains A, B ..... read by the programs of the CCP4 suite.

I was using the G option but I didn't know how to rename the chains. To do that just use the $ symbol and then you'll be asked the chain ID (type A, B, C ....), which residues you want to include in that chain and the number of the first residue in the new chain. Do this for all the chains you have in your model.

I hope this can help other newbies like me :D

Cheers,
Fátima

Dear Fatima,

Maybe one of the CCP4 experts has been able to answer your question. In case this has not happened, I have attached a little (linux) program that should do what you want. To find out how to run it, enter the program name without any parameters:

./b-mean

I have also attached the Fortran source, you will see that it is a very simple-minded program.

Dear all:

I am dealing with a SHELXL/ BAVERAGE issue.

I have refined a few structures in SHELXL but I think I am not converting properly the coordinates into the .pdb format. I am trying to use Baverage but I get an error The program run with command: baverage XYZIN "C:/datasets/34_MolP.pdb" XYZOUT "C:/datasets/34_MolP_baverage1.pdb" RMSTAB "C:/datasets/34_MolP_bavrmstab1.txt" has failed with error message
 BAVERAGE:   XYZOPEN: Error opening logical name XYZIN

Thank you very much. Any comments will be appreciated.

Fátima
