Dear Justin and Mark,

I think you are both right.

I didn't get your last sentence Mark! What is a libxdrfile?

Justin, The problem is I have so many atoms in the system. As I said the
best format for reading data is to be like this:
time     x1 y1 z1     x2 y2 z2   ....... xn yn zn
0          1 2 3           2 3 4               8 5 6
0.1
0.2
...
as you know the trajectory format is like this:

(t=)0      x1 y1 z1  x2 y2 z2   x3 y3 z3  x4 y4 z4.......
x5 y5 z5   ......... x4000 y4000 z4000
(t=)0.1   x1 y1 z1  x2 y2 z2..............
x5 y5 z5  ....... x4000 y4000 z40000
completely difficult and confusing for me and the program both!

According to your points, I can come to the conclusion that changing the
file format is not possible.
I appreciate your help as usual. thanks alot!

Cheers,
Mah
