Jonathon Stevens asks about books that tell you how to do ab in opt's.
 Some recent books are
 A Spartan Tutoria, W. J. Hehre, L. D. Burke, and A. J. Shusterman
 This is supplied with the Spartan MM/Semiemp/Ab In computational program.
 If you don't have Spartan (so much the worse for you), you may still find
 the tutorial helpful with other programs.
 Practical Strategies for Electronic Structure Calculations, W. J. Hehre, L. D.
 Burke
 Evaluation of Modern Electronic Structure Methods, W. J. Hehre
 Experiments in Computational Organic Chemistry  W. J. Hehre, L. D. Burke,
 A. J. Shusterman and W. J. Pietro
 All four are published by Wavefunction, Inc, 18401 Von Karman Ave
 Suite 370,  Irvine CA 92715   (714)955-2120,  FAX (714)955-2118)
 They are oriented toward the use of the highly graphical Spartan program
 of Wavefunction.   Another useful book, designed for instruction in the
 Gaussian programs (G92 in particular) is
 Exploring Chemistry with Electronic Structure Methods, by James B. Foresman
 and Aeleen Frisch, available from Gaussian Inc., 4415 Fifth Ave,
 Pittsburgh, PA 15213,  (412)279-6700, FAX ....-2118; info at.at gaussian.com
 All these books apeared in the last year or two.
