Hi,
  You can load a PDB file at the VMD command prompt with this command:

mol load pdb somefile.pdb

If you're on unix, and its not in the current directory, you'd use:
mol load pdb /users/me/somedirectory/somefile.pdb

If you're on Windows, you'd do this:
mol load pdb c:/myproject/somedirectory/somefile.pdb

Please let us know if you need any other help.

Thanks for using VMD!
