Thanks Dr. Case and DR. Yildirim. I got that.

|I dont see any problem here. Your original .pdb file does not have TER
|cards in it, while the mod2.pdb has TER cards in it to seperate each
|water molecule from each other (which is normal). VMD uses the 'distance'
|between 2 atoms to decide whether there is a bond or not (namely its a
|guess). If you use these prmtop/inpcrd files in sander, it will not see
|this 'virtual' bond that u see in VMD as a bond.
