Maybe this is a different issue... but it's ok that after the 99,999th 
atom the counter restarts from zero?

>  21374SOL     OW99999  12.986   9.021   7.036 -0.0037 -0.4345  0.3977
>  21374SOL    HW1    0  13.069   8.987   7.081  0.5916  0.5409  0.0638

Could this be the origin of my problem?

Thanks again,

Fabio
