Attached is the CIF file in question. The crystal is Tobermorite 14A,

Abhinav,
I don't understand the contents of the CIF file in the context of the
copy of the International Tables that I have in front of me. The list
of equivalent positions given in the CIF file just doesn't seem to be
right for space group 9.
The CIF file is clearly using the C axis as the unique axis since the z
coordinate is the negated coordinate. But the list of positions does
not correspond to any of the three cell choices.
While this could be a problem in Artemis, I am inclined to think that
the authors of the paper cited in the CIF file made some kind of
non-standard choice for the setting of their crystal.
As I said before, Artemis does what the International Tables tell it to
do. If the author of a crystallography paper makes some non-standard
choice, Artemis won't know how to deal with it.
