Hello,

I am new user of Gromacs. I did a pdb2gmx command on my pdb file. I got an 
error below:

"Residue 'XXX' not found in residue topology database"

I know that I blindly made my pdb file using Materials Studio 4.2. Let me know 
there is a special software to make a pdb file? Thank you in advance for your 
response.

No, but you can certainly make life hard for yourself by using poor PDB-producing software, or using good software poorly. See http://wiki.gromacs.org/index.php/Errors for some background for this error. You need to generate a structure file whose residues and atoms are defined for the force field you intend to use, and which are named suitably so that pdb2gmx can recognize them. 'XXX' suggests that either MS4.2, or your usage of it, or both, are making life hard.

Depending on your level of newness, you should definitely do some background textbook/manual/literature reading, and/or tutorials.
