Jiahui, It would be helpful to me to see an example of a CIF file that triggers this problem. If you are running on Windows, then I would also like to see the contents of the %APPDATA%\demeter\dartemis.log file. See http://bruceravel.github.com/demeter/pods/bugs.pod.html If you are a linux user, I would need to see the messages sent to the terminal, which requires running the program from the terminal rather from some launcher widget. As I have said many times before on this mailing list, CIF support is rather weak at this time. I am using a CIF parsing tool written by someone else and it has its problems. That said, as people report these problems, I am able to build more smarts into Demeter so that it at least deals gracefully with a CIF file it doesn't understand.

Dear list,
I am having this problem when I try to open the crystal structure file in .cif format. I've tried many times already--each time when I try to open the crystal structure file in *.cif format, both (D)Atoms and (D)Artemis will close by themselves without any error message. What can I do to solve this problem and carry on with my work? I am using Demeter 0.9.13 version.
Thank you very much for your help,
[jiahui]
