Hello,

I have kind of a funny problem: I retrieved a structure file from the
Cambridge Database in CIF format - but I cannot get it into the PDB
format. I tried:
- CIFTr (from http://pdb.rutgers.edu/mmcif/). Gives a run time error.
- CIF2PDB (from http://www.bernstein-plus-sons.com/software/cif2pdb/DISCUSS.cif2pdb.html)
  doesn't compile properly - at least in my hands.

Are there any other conversion programs? I hardly can belive that we have
such a big compatibility problem between small - and large molecule crystallography.
Actually, aren't we supposed to switch to (mm)CIF anyways sooner or
later ??

Help is highly appreciated

Pete
