Rex, I think the problem is that the latest version of the dictionary which contains LBT (and many other new ligands) only works with Refmac 5.6 (but check with Garib on that!), but that version hasn't yet been compiled for Windows. Unfortunately Windows versions tend to lag a bit behind Linux & Mac/OSX versions for historical reasons.
Have you looked here: http://ligand-depot.rutgers.edu/ld-search.html You could download the ideal PDB coords and use Garib's JLIGAND to make the library entry. Cheers -- Ian PS Can someone explain to me why alpha-lactose is LBT and beta-lactose is LAT?
