Dear Greg, Thanks for reply. I also think SDView is most needed and common used GUI part. I'm new to use RDKit and start to study the source code and to see if I can contribute code to the project. Perhaps a converter from SDF to Excel data table with properties and structure graphs is needed by many one include me.
