Hi Folks, There is also convert2mtz which can be found in more recent CCP4 distributions. If you type convert2mtz it will give you details on what is needed.
A couple of caveats with this: - you need to quite the cell constants i.e. 'a b c alpha beta gamma' - the spacegroup has to be written correctly, i.e. 'P 43 21 2' is interpreted correctly, P43212 is interpreted as P1. I find this very helpful for inspecting and using maps from shelxe.
