Hi Daniel,

Yes, you are right. I can able to convert DCD file to amber .mdcrd file.
But I can't convert the .prmtop file from .psf and charm parameter files.
As far as I know there is some limitation on MMPBSA program which uses only
amber .prmtop file. If you have any idea how to do that please let me know.

Thanks again
Sudipta
