Thanks for reply, That's very quick. =)

It didn't work either when I didn't specify NTX and the results were
same (nmode_com.in has ntx = 0).

nmode_com.in is like followings:

--------------------------------------------
File generated by mm_pbsa.pl
  &data
   ntx = 0, <- this should be 1
   ntrun = 1, nvect = 0,
   drms = 1,
   dielc = 4.0, idiel = 0,
   scnb = 2.0, scee = 1.2
  &end
END
--------------------------------------------

How and where should I change that value in mm_pbas.pl?

Thanks,

Best regards,

Seungyeul
