Subject: add DUMMY atom into coordinate file

Greetings all,
  I want to create a prep file for an organic molecule about 164 atoms.
The coordinate was taken from PDB and I used sybyl 6.8 to measure the
distance, angle, torsion of this molecule. However, I've no idea how
to add DUMMY atom into coordinate file(i.e. DUMMY atom coordinate in PDB).
(The 1st atom of this molecule is carbon)
Except for using Antechamber, is there efficient way to deal with this
problem or to create prep file ?
Thanks for your help.

Best Regards,
sychen
