Hello Hirdesh,

Have you seen the VMD tutorial?
http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Training/Tutorials/vmd/tutorial-html/index.html

And in particular the "Data ANnalysis" section?
http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Training/Tutorials/vmd/tutorial-html/node7.html

If you read through the "Example of an analysis script," you should be able to change the relevant part to calculate RMSF.

Hope this helps!
