Generally a good idea to keep the names consistent, however - why are you using
POP in the coordinate file instead of POPC?

If it is a .pdb file, the standard residue name occupies 3 characters. Many files (including those from Tieleman) are distributed with such names.

To the OP's original question - the commands you issue depend on what you're trying to achieve. What group do you need to create?

    Dear gmx users,
    I want to simulate POPC in water. In equilibration step, I have to make an
    index file. But when I enter this command, I do not know to choose which
    group to make a suitable .ndx file which matches the molecule types and
    molecules sections in .top file .

    The .top file contains these:


    [ moleculetype ]
    ; Name nrexcl
    POPC 3
    .
    .
    .
    .
    [ system ]
    ; name
    POPC in water

    [ molecules ]
    ; name number
    POPC 128
    SOL 3800


    It is the command I enter:
    # make_ndx -f em.gro -o index.ndx
    0 System : 18056 atoms
    1 Other : 6656 atoms
    2 POP : 6656 atoms
    3 Water : 11400 atoms
    4 SOL : 11400 atoms
    5 non-Water : 6656 atoms

    nr : group ! 'name' nr name 'splitch' nr Enter: list groups
    'a': atom & 'del' nr 'splitres' nr 'l': list residues
    't': atom type | 'keep' nr 'splitat' nr 'h': help
    'r': residue 'res' nr 'chain' char
    "name": group 'case': case sensitive 'q': save and quit
    'ri': residue index

    Now, what is the correct answer? Anybody can suggest me?

    Thanks in advance,
    Shima
