Hi,Jason

I try CPPTRAJ just now, but it says that:

CPPTRAJ: Trajectory Analysis. V14.00
     ___ ___ ___ ___
      | \/ | \/ | \/ |
     _|_/\_|_/\_|_/\_|_
        Reading '../step5/chamber22gro.prmtop' as Amber Topology
        CHAMBER topology: 1: CHARMM 31 * CHARMM22STAR CHARMM22STAR
CHARMM22STAR CHARMM22STAR CHARMM
INPUT: Reading Input from STDIN
   [trajin ../step5/crd/rxsg25.mdcrd.001 rxsgldtraj rxsgldid 1]
Error: Could not determine trajectory ../step5/crd/rxsg25.mdcrd.001
format.
Error: Could not set up input trajectory
'../step5/crd/rxsg25.mdcrd.001'.
        1 errors encountered reading input.
TIME: Total execution time: 0.0883 seconds.

Need your help!
