vaL = CwResult.GetReactionForcesAndMoments(1, Nothing, swsForceUnitlbOrlbin, ErrorCode)
I am posting this 3 places in hopes somebody knows.This command, as far as I have been able to determine, doesn't work. The help says it returns an array of forces and moments. As near as I can determine, the array has the node number in the first position then 8 postions of presumably forces and moments followed by the next node number etc. Assuming that the nodes numbers are the same, you can find the node numbers by using vaL = cwMesh.GetElementDataFromEntity(ob, X).
The data you get from all this make no sense and does not agree even slightly with the results you get from using the program itself. Anyone know what the output of this command represents or if this is just a phantom mythical command the guys at solidworks generated to drive us nuts.If so, how you get reactions out using VBA?
Thanks,John
