How to write PRNSOL output to a file

[madal]

I'd like to write a macro file that performs some PRNSOL commands on different components and, instead of having the results in the usual popup window, I'd like to have them directly in a txt file to use in other applications.
My ideal macro should than be:
...
...
cmsel,s,comp1
PRNSOL,U,SUM
<command to write to file1>
cmsel,s,comp2
PRNSOL,U,SUM
<command to write to file2>
...
...
Can anyone help me?!?!?

Many many thanks in advance
Al

No problem:

...
...
cmsel,s,comp1
/output,comp1_output,txt ! redirect output to a file called "comp1_output.txt"
PRNSOL,U,SUM
/out
cmsel,s,comp2
alls
/output,comp2_output,txt
PRNSOL,U,SUM
/out
...
...

The above will only work if you read the file in using the

/input

command or from

File > Read input from

So make sure you save the above in a separate text file and read it in.

Thank you very much, Drej.

After I wrote my question, I tried with "/out,file_name" too, but I missed to execute the macro: I only copied-pasted the lines into command line, and obviously in that case it doesn't work...

Too much work, not enough coffe!
