Have a look at the mdcrd format information;
http://amber.scripps.edu/formats.html#trajectory

but I suspect you are asking the wrong question and perhaps you should
be using the ptraj tool to extract this information. You need to read
around a bit. There is a useful summary of what ptraj can do at:

http://amber.scripps.edu/tutorial/ptraj/index.html

with specific attention to the distance command.

There is more than one way to do what you want to do; you could use the
VMD tool and set a distance measurement between two atoms; there was a
recent thread about it at:
