Hi Gobind,

Sorry for the delay. Notice that the suggestion I sent you before will
zero ALL bond constants of a specific TYPE, not a specific bond. In
your case, it seems that yoou need some extra control, so it might
actually not be such a good idea.

One thing I imagine you could do is to go back to Leap and try to
tweak the force constants there. I imagine you would have to re-define
the atoms you are interested so that the interaction involving those
atoms are unique, and then you can zero the constants only to those
interactions. (But I think other people in this list are more
qualified to give you more details on how.)

Good luck!

Gustavo
