Thanks for the assistance. I will like to control the pattern of the fragment of my molecule in the NBO analysis but FIREFLY does not allow me to make use of the  NBO Keywords:

$NBO $END
$DEL
NAO NEDA (1, list of atoms for the first fragment) (2,... list of atoms for the second fragment) END
$END

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Adebayo Adeniyi.
