Hi Mark

My Apologies. Here is more info.

gmxdump -f traj.trr >history
>From history I take the coordinates at 250 ps and convert to gro file
say test.gro

trjconv -f traj.trr -dump 250 -o frame5.gro

I then compare frame5.gro with test.gro

Please find attached an excerpts of both files (in one file) and pay
attention to the sign difference of the x coordinate at atom s 38 50 51 59

Cheers

Gavin
