 Dear Dr. Legrand,

    I made the same observation. Xplor apparently selects randomly say 
10% of all the data (including Friedel pairs) and flags them with TEST=1. 
To cure this problem I ran Xplor twice : first I had only the unique data 
set and selected 10 % of the data as test reflections. Then I generated 
an Xplor reflection file with all my data including Friedel pairs.
Finally I wrote an awk script to copy the test-flag from the unique data 
set to the data set with Friedel pairs, making sure that the output 
contains flags for both Friedel mates. If you are interested in the 
script drop me a line.
