Hi Spencer, thanks for the feedback.
Do you know the "organic" keyword? This should usually match what you consider the ligand. It will not distinguish between covalently bound and not covalently bound, though. select ligand, organic & !(bymol polymer) select ptm, organic & (bymol polymer) Cheers, Thomas Spencer Bliven wrote, On 09/11/13 01:14: > Excellent!
