Dear coot users,

I've tried to auto-open several MTZ files without success.
The MTZ files were produced using REFMAC5 (restrain refinement). After loading 
the PDB file in coot (successfully) I tried to auto-open the related MTZ file 
but coot crushed giving the following message:

Number of OBSERVED reflections: 8194

This should not be a problem related to the coot version. I had the same error 
message from coot using both the 0.7-pre version (installed using fink) and the 
latest stable release (0.6.2 version, installed using the pkg-coot installer, 
the dmg was downloaded from the ccp4 web site). Moreover this is not a problem 
related to a particular MTZ file: I had the same error message testing 3 
different MTZ files from 3 independent projects.
I'm using as operative system a Mac OS X 10.6.8 on a MacBook Pro.

Could anyone please give me suggestions how to fix the problem?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards


Stefano
