Subject: Re: *vwrite command, integer format character that w orks on a HP and SUN machine
Author: Tony Artiles
Date: 1998-12-17 12:26:00In Windows NT 4.0 SP 3, and ANSYS Release 5.5.1 UP19981001,
ii=1
x=2.3456789
*vwrite,ii,x
(' node = ',I8,1X,F10.5)
produces:
node = ******** 2.34568
*** WARNING *** CP= 1.182 TIME=
12:15:46
Data output error, probably bad FORMAT
(' node = ',I8,1X,F10.5).
James' fix,
(' node = ',F8.0,tl1,' ',1X,F10.5)
works:
node = 1 2.34568
