Thanks a lot for your help, actually I do not know the exact file format at the moment all what I know is : "The DCD files (the trajectory files) are single precision binary FORTRAN files, so are transportable between computer architectures. They are not, unfortunately, transportable between big-endian (most workstations) and little endian (Intel) architectures " is this enough???? best regards karim ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
