Just to clarify.  It sounds like the problem Pshemak is having is that when he 
looks at the vibrations, it is actually switching to another frame or model.  
These other frames or models do not contain the MOs.  The MOs are still there 
(associated with the first model - or is model 1 the second model?).  To see 
the MOs along with the other models I suppose they could be copied over using 
some javascript?  However, it seems this would look funny with some static MO 
with the atoms moving relative to it.  If what Pshemak wants is to animate 
through the vibration models and have an MO associated with each vibration 
model which has been calculated for that model that will be a tough thing to 
do.  It is no longer a Jmol issue but rather how to get Spartan to calculate an 
MO for each vibration model it is generating then output that in a way that 
Jmol could read and animate.  Probably possible, but I'm not sure exactly how 
to do it.
