Hello everyone,
I use the g_order to get the order parameter of the tails( C1A, C2A, C3A, C4A) of DPPC. The are 100 molecules of DPPC 1. I use the make_ndx -f dppc.trr -n index to produce the index file. > a C1A

Q_1: Is the method right to produce the index file?

There is a how-to on the g_order page:

http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Gromacs_Utilities/g_order

Your procedure seems like it might be right, but what are atoms C1A, C2A, etc? This isn't the numbering I'm used to. What are groups 0-3?

Then there only four groups orderly named C1A, C2A, C3A, C4A in the index file. 2. I use the g_order -n index -s npt.tpr ... to get the order parameter. However, there are lots of errors

Don't use "..." when posting a command.  Provide the whole command.

Why?

These messages seem to indicate that you have non-sequential carbon atoms. Cross-check the atom names you've used to create the index file with the actual coordinates.
