Hi Thomas
I hope you want to edit only PDB file. In that case this might help
1] Open your pdb file using "Word Pad" [ keep a copy of original pdb file
with you]
2] Delete unnecessary atom lines
3] Save the file [ Do not use "Save As" ]
4] Open the file using VMD
5] Save the coordinates in pdb format. [ I hope your are familiar with VMD]
Try this
