Hi All,

I just wanted to post a follow up to my original question. I created the
contact elements without using the wizard as Paris suggested. I did not get
any warning messages and I did get the same results as I did when I used the
wizard. Since I have always used the wizard for contact (I assumed it was
easier than direct generation) I was shocked to find out how few commands
are needed to generate contact elements without it. For this model the
wizard writes over 300 lines of code that I pasted into an input file.
Creating the contacts with out the wizard took about 10 lines in my input
file. Just for the cleaner input file I will be switching to the direct
generation method.
