Was able to use an older ANSYS version on Unix and use the memory management option to bypass the heap space memory issue.

This Rhino has been corraled! All surfaces were transferred. Thanks for everyones help!

The "ansys" command launches ansys from a command line and
"-m" is a flag for that command. When you launch ansys interactively,
it essentially takes all the info. from the window and issues the "ansys"
command with a bunch of flags in a command window (nt).

I launched it with the interactive window. I read the index help on memory management, so I knew to use the ansys -m ( ) command, but was obviously not entering it where it could be used. I will look for "total workspace" the next time. I tried looking for any command that would help and I suppose I could have overlooked this one. Do you recall what menu it may be under? Thanks.

How do you launch ansys?
If by command line, then add the flag -m xxx where xxx is the workspace size
in MB. If, however, you launch with the "interactive" window, look in the middle
of the window for "Total Workspace" .

I took the Rhino IGES file and was able to transfer it to SolidWorks. I saved it as IGES file from SolidWorks and reloaded into Rhino- no problem. I took the same IGES file from SolidWorks and attempted to load into ANSYS 5.5, NT. However, I received a heap space error saying I should increase workspace. Should I try to load on UNIX for better result? How do I change the workspace size on the NT?
