I don't know of any tutorial for divcon, but you can look into the
test cases ($AMBERHOME/tests/qmmm2/). There are some tests for divcon
there that you can use as a template to start your calculation.

Do you mean sander? If so, you are right: MNDO/d is not available in
sander. It is available in DIVCON, which is a separate program to
which sander can interface. In this case you will *not* be using the
native QM implementation available in sander, but instead you will be
using a different program that can be called from within sander. Also,
take some time to study the manual sessions about divcon to make sure
you understand the advantages / disadvantages of this interface, since
it has different capabilities than the native sander implementation.

I hope that helps,
Gustavo.
