Wow, the number of helpful responses to this post was great.  Most everyone 
had the same suggestion, getting rid of the extra carriage return lines that 
Windows likes to insert into the file in addition to the newline character 
that is present in Unix.

Many people had suggestions for fixing this without re-creating the Mol2 
files.  Utilities suggested include:

> From Unix-

dos2unix
to_dos
to_unix
fromdos
recode

> From Windows-

U2d.exe
D2u.exe

The only one I have tried is "dos2unix", and it works very well.  After 
running this on my "Windows" files, I have no problems with them in the Linux 
version of ADT.

Thanks again to everyone for your suggestions.

-Robert
