may i ask you to help yourself, please?
the atom selection syntax is explained
in the VMD user's guide and demonstrated
in the VMD tutorial. please study those
instead of guessing. it will most certainly
be very helpful to you for many potential
future problems. they were written to
answer questions like yours before they
are asked.

thanks,
