ERROR 77 [file ffgmxnb.itp, line 144]:

You can't simply hack a force field into using a different nonbonded function type. To do so, you'd have to re-write the whole force field. None of the common biomolecular force fields use Buckingham.

any help appreciated.

    Presumably, since that's what the manual would indicate works.  You
    can answer these sorts of questions yourself by giving it a try,
    then verifying the run parameters by using gmxdump on the resulting
    .tpr file.

               Thanks a lot for timely reply by gmxusers.I read the

        file.Now in
               mdp file in vdwtype i want to specify it as buckingham
        but looks
               like i can mention only LJ and in manual they haven't
        told about
               the notation for BJ.any suggestions please.


           Use of Buckingham potentials is not controlled by the .mdp file,
           except in the fact that several of the vdwtype methods cannot be
           used in conjunction with Buckingham (see manual, section 7.3.11);
           only "cutoff" appears to be viable here.
