How to use functions for loading the model?

[Lirock]

Hi,everyone:
I got a queation today.I used function for loading the model in a transient analysis.But after the solution I got no result curves in /POST26. Here is my steps:
1)Build and mesh the model.Just a beam with 2 nodes.
2)Define a function, which is result=3*sin(0.2*TIME).Then read from the .func file and give a parameter name 'A'.
3)Go to /SOLU, constrained all the DOFs of node 1, give node 2 a force with command 'F,2,FY,%A%'; set time at end of step to 4. Every substep result be print out.
4)solve
5)/POST26, Graph variable 2, which is the UY of node2,but there is no curve.
I wonder if there is some mistake?

Hi,
sometimes /POST26 wants the result file to be re-read (after opening the window of the time-history postpro, use "file-open"). I also have had erratic behaviour of /POST26 with a similar procedure as yours, but it was with v. 8.0. Afterwards I didn't have the need to run such kind of analysis, so I don't know if further versions fix it or not.
