Personally, if I need to change a chain ID, I can use Coot or

this should only be necessary if you're processing large numbers of

misformatted PDB file.
Problem. Coot is bad at the chain label aspect.
Create a pdb file containing residues A1-A20 and X101-X120 -
non-overlapping numbering.
Try to change the chain label of X to A.
I get "WARNING:: CONFLICT: chain id already exists in this molecule"
Having had to show this to a student today, it does work fine if you
select the "Use Residue Range" option rather than changing the whole
chain. Not quite so convenient, but at least it makes the user think.
