i have structured my text file (file.txt) according to ANSYS command file, now i want that when i put this file again in autocadd than it results in a drawing of the same structure frm which the text file is generated.

i am posting myt text file also...


/title , frame

/PREP7

!Enter the height and width of the frame:

300, 400

! Define Keypoints

K,1,x1, y1 ! keypoint, #, x, y
K,2,x2, y2
K,3,x3, y3
K,4,x4, y4
K,5,x5, y5
K,6,x6, y6

! Define Lines Linking Keypoints

L,1,2 ! L,keypoint1,keypoint2
L,2,3
L,3,4
L,4,1
L,4,6
L,4,5
L,3,5
L,3,6

! element definition

!

ET,1,LINK1 ! element type #1; spring element
R,1,3250 ! real constant #1; Xsect area: 3200 mm^2
MP,EX,1,200e3 ! material property #1; Young's modulus: 200 GPa


LESIZE,ALL, , ,1,1,1 ! specify divisions on unmeshed lines
LMESH,all ! mesh all lines

!
FINISH ! finish pre-processor
!
/SOLU ! enter solution phase
!
! apply some constraints

DK,1,UX,0,,,UY,UZ ! define a DOF constraint at a keypoint
DK,7,UY,0,,,UZ

!
! apply loads
!

FK,1,FY,-280e3 ! define a force load to a keypoint
FK,3,FY,-210e3
FK,5,FY,-280e3
FK,7,FY,-360e3

!
SOLVE ! solve the resulting system of equations

FINISH ! finish solution

/POST1

PRRSOL,F ! List Reaction Forces
PLDISP,2 ! Plot Deformed shape
PLNSOL,U,SUM,0,1 ! Contour Plot of deflection

ETABLE,SAXL,LS, 1 ! Axial Stress
PRETAB,SAXL ! List Element Table
PLETAB,SAXL,NOAV ! Plot Axial Stress


to make more clear, i have generated my text file by using VBA programming in autocad, i know that to get drawing from this text file also need programming in VBA but i am not getting any idea how to do it.

the problem, to export text file to ansys is solved so the problem remains is the above one.

please help me out http://www.autocadeverything.com/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_sad.gif..its really urgent, deadline is very near http://www.autocadeverything.com/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_sad.gif

thanks

as i posted text file in first post....i want to make the following part of the file more clear...



! Define Keypoints
K,1,x1, y1 ! keypoint, #, x, y
K,2,x2, y2
K,3,x3, y3
K,4,x4, y4
K,5,x5, y5
K,6,x6, y6

in above part actually X1, Y1 have some values...so actually above part is like this in text file..except this everything is correct in file and written as i want to.




! Define Keypoints
K, 1,4578.2531,7919.0487

K, 2,11346.8678,11826.9102

K, 3,11346.8678,3072.2707

K, 4,4578.2531,3072.2707

K, 5,11346.8678,7919.0487

K, 6,4578.2531,11826.9102
