Dear CCP4,

I have an MTZ file that has the following columns:

 * Column Labels :
 
 H K L FCD FCL PHIC
 
 * Column Types :
 
 H H H F F P

I want to export this to a 6-Column ASCII file. When using the GUI for
'Convert from MTZ' (mtz2various) the resulting ASCII file is missing the
phases. I tried running a command script but I don't think I understand
the column label/program label/filehandle argument for LABIN.

Any help greatly appreciated,

Richard Baxter
