Hello, it's a while since I ran Shelx and I imagine that you are running it 
through the i2 GUI, which isn't something I've tried yet. Unless it's changed a 
lot recently, shelx itself accepts the reflection data as h, k, l, F and 
sigma(F) (HKLF 3) or h, k, l, I and sigma(I) (HKLF 4). Bit rusty on this so 
details might be wrong. The direct methods it does for finding heavy-atom sites 
or anomalous scatterers in macromolecules relies on using the differences 
between FPH and FP, or FPH+ and FPH-, hence the need for a file containing 
both. In contrast, with small molecule direct methods or macromolecular 
refinement, the F or I data (with their sigma's) alone are sufficient for the 
calculations, but probably you knew that already. Best wishes, Jon.C.

Dear all:

When using Shelx, there are two input file formats(scalepack or mtz) to select. 
If scalepack format input file is selected, both native data and HA data is in 
need. But if mtz format input file is selected, only HA data is in need. Why 
this difference exist ? Is there a difference in the algorithm when using 
different input formats?
Thanks,
Jiao
