Can you explain in a bit greater depth what you're trying to do?  Are you trying 
to constrain distances between atoms that are not covalently bonded?  In that 
case, restraints are likely more appropriate than constraints, but we'll need 
more detail before anyone can give you any really productive suggestions.
