Sorry it seems that those breaks are due to hotmail and not present in the 
topology. Thanks for your reply. I still have problems...I will tell u briefly 
and as clear as possible what i did.
(1)  My top file has the following lines ate first:
; Include forcefield parameters   #include "ffoplsaamod.itp"[ moleculetype ]
which means that when grompp is reading it, it will first go to 
ffoplsaamod.itp. 
(2) After the description of what the ffoplsaamod is (commented by ";"), the 
input is simply:
[ defaults ];nbfunc     comb-rule       gen-pairs       fudgeLJ fudgeQQ1        
        3               yes             0.5     0.5
#include "ffoplsaanb.itp"#include "ffoplsaabon.itp"
where the nonbonded and bonded parameters are included in this order (which you 
have also mentioned in your previous e-mail). If i run grompp in this way I get 
the error:
Fatal error:Syntax error - File ffoplsaamod.itp, line 18Last line 
read:'\par'Found a second defaults directive.
which I really cannot understand. The above [defaults] is the first thing that 
the code will pass through. How come it mentions this as a second directory?
(3) i commented the above [ defaults] with a ";" and I get another error:
Fatal error:Syntax error - File ffoplsaanb.itp, line 1Last line read:'[ 
atomtypes ]'Invalid order for directive atomtypes
which might mean according to what I have read (correct me if I am wrong 
please), that the order might be violated and that [atomtypes] should not come 
first; but it is the first directive in the ffoplsaanb.itp file, which should 
be read first. 
So what might be happening? what is going wrong? or maybe what am I 
missing?Thank you all once again for the effort you are making in this forum

Elie
