Hi Rajeev, As far as I know, the ABAQUS reader functionality is still at the stage that I left it about 2 years ago (with some compatibility upgrades by Tim/Jason as some of the interfaces changed). It was developed to support our needs (a limited subset of the syntax) and doesn't necessarily recognize the complete syntax of ABAQUS (which is quite extensive). This may be a problem caused by having a more complex model than the ABAQUS generated models we were using. Paul On 12/22/2011 03:45 PM, Rajeev Jain wrote:
