Hey Birgit! You'll need an actual computational chemistry package to
calculate an electrostatic potential energy surface. For small jobs, check
out WebMO: http://buchner.chem.hope.edu/~webmodemo/cgi-bin/webmo/login.cgi.
You can build a molecule, optimize its geometry, then calculate its
molecular orbitals and electrostatic potential. The output can be
downloaded.

I could be wrong, but I *think* the .MO files that come out of a Mopac
WebMO job contain information about electrostatic potential.

Cheers, Mike
