You will need to do a little hand-editing. The charges and atom types for
a urea molecule are in the first eight atom records of the 8Mureabox.off
file. You could use these to create a mol2 format file and read that into
LEaP.

Alternatively, you could probably load the 8Mureabox.off file into xleap,
then use the unit editor to erase everything but one urea molecule, and
save that as a new unit.

...good luck...dac
