First, I suggest you move to ff10.

If you want a nucleoside, use "UN" ("RUN" in the old nomenclature scheme.)
If you want a nucleotide, do the following:

   loadAmberPrep nucleic10.in (needed since OHE is here, but not in
                                 nucleic10.lib...needs fixing)
   x = sequence { OHE U3 }

The "x" should be the nucleotide you want.
(Also to fix: the above should be in the Users' Manual...}

...hope this helps....dac
