Thank you everyone for the suggestions. I can now view and read the mtz
files.

Dear Saha,
If you are not used to use ccp4 with the command line, you first need to tell
your computer where to find the ccp4 programs by using the command "source".
For example, I am working on a Mac, where ccp4 is installed in the Applications
folder, so in a terminal I just have to run
Shelxc/d/e require text files (either SHELX hkl or SCALEPACK sca
format), not binary files like mtz.
You can convert directly the XDS_ASCII.HKL from XDS to SHELX hkl with
XDSCONV, which you can then input to shelxc to begin the pipeline. You
still need to supply cell parameters and space
mtzdump is a command line tool, so you have run it from a terminal. There is
also a shorthand version for lazy people like me (notice the missing 'u'):
mtzdmp something.mtz
Cheers,
Robbie

Thank you for the suggestions. I had searched the mtzdump in CCP4i, but
didn't find any, I only found the mtz2various program.
I am using the Shelxc/d/e suite. I had converted the ASCII.HKL file (the
one that I had mentioned before) to mtz using Pointless. Then, when I used
this file to run
If you run mtzdump hklin your.mtz
the first output is descriptive.
Have you done that?
You will get "header" information about cell, selected symmetry, etc, and a
list of labels for the columns
That will start H K L then maybe F+ SIGF+ F- SIGF-
or I+ SIGI+ I_ SIGI-
or something else.
Can you
Hi there,
I assume you processed the data with XDS. If so, you can use xdsconv to
convert the file other formats, including mtz
To analyze (view?) an mtz file you can use mtzdump. MTZ2Various is a
format conversion program, just like xdsconv. You can convert directly
to SCALEPACK format
