Here is the general tleap scheme:

source leaprc.ff99SB (for example)
source leaprc.gaff (to get the parameters needed for the ligand)
loadAmberParams ligand.frcmod (to get the special parameters for your ligand)
RES = loadMol2 ligand.mol2 (where "RES" is the name of the ligand residue)
complex = loadPdb mycomplex.pdb (where this is the pdb file referred to above)
saveAmberParm complex prmtop inpcrd
quit

Basically, the "loadMol2" command does for mol2 files what the "loadAmberPrep"
file does for prepin files.

...hope this helps...dac
