Rana, to a large extent this depends on what you what to do with the delta-F's afterwards (you didn't say). If all you want to do is calculate a map, Patterson or Fourier, (which is probably what we do most of the time with delta-F's) then you don't need to calculate the difference as a separate step, the FFT input routine will do it for you, also applying an appropriate phase if required. Or even if you want to say calculate normalised moduli of the differences for direct methods, again the ECALC program will calculate the difference before doing the normalisation. It goes without saying that subtracting F's is pretty meaningless if they are not on the same scale, and any relative B factor has been taken out as well.
