I begin like this- Warren answered the later problem regarding the "site" selection or object. You should be able to load a ccp4 map either directly as a .ccp4 file, or to force it to load as a ccp4 format with: load test_file.ccp4, map, format=ccp4 Does PyMOL complain that it doesn't know the format with an error like: PyMOL>load test_ccp4.map Error: .map is ambiguous. Please add format or use another extension: Error: For example, "load fofc.map, format=ccp4" or "load 2fofc.xplor". or was the error that you couldn't display the map on the molecule (as in the error that Warren commented on about using "site" as a selection when site has not been defined? Also be aware that PyMOL needs to have a map that is calculated to cover the molecule that you are showing since it does not automatically extend the map using symmetry. Cheers, Rob -- Robert L.
