I would probably prioritize keeping the same R-free set (thus using the F^2 output by mtz2various) over
going through the scalepack format and loosing track of it.
You can however use XPREP to transfer the R-free set from the "inferior" F^2 HKLF4 file output by mtz2various to the proper intensities read from the scalepack file generated by mtz2sca. Then you can write out an HKLF4 file for refinement in SHELXL-97. That HKLF4 file will have proper intensities and the same Rfree set that you have used in Refmac5 (or perhaps Restrain?). But then one would wish that mtz2various did this from the beginning...

Best regards,

Martin

All, I thought this would be a simple task, but for the life of me I
can't see how to do it!  All I want to do is convert an MTZ file to
Shel-X format for refinement.  I thought it would take me 2 secs, but
it's taken me at least 5 attempts, and it's still not right!

Do the conversion on the shelx side, rather than the CCP4 side.
