Dear Varsha,

If u want to write the charges in the .pdb file, u need to set the
pdbwritecharges option on in xleap, and then save it, as follows;

...
set default PdbWriteCharges on
savepdb molecule molecule.pdb
...

The molecule.pdb file's last column is going to have the charge info. Now,
which program can be used to see these charges... GRASP definitely can
load the structure with the charge info given at the last column. Or in
xleap, if u 'edit molecule', this will show the charges, too. I am not
sure, but InsigthII might show the charges, too. In any case, if u need to
charges in the .pdb file, u need to set the above PdbWriteCharges option
on before saving the structure in a .pdb file.

Best,
