Copy and paste data from an EXCEL table to a Load in Mechanics (Electrical Thermal)

      Hello.

      in an electrical thermal study, here is my issue:

      I would like to copy and paste a column from an Excel file to a column in Tabular Data.

      so when you start a new mechanical thermal-electric analysis, have only one Step as it is be default (do not go to analysis settings and set steps equal to 17), then go to the first row and second time column (there is only one row since we have one step only) and paste your column to the time column for the "End times".

      Then create the current object and paste your values under the current column (choose the first row and second column for the paste).

      All the best

      Hello Erik.
      Sorry, but I can't do it. Here's how I do it.
      First step: i select Analysis Setting. I have by defaultone Steps and one sec. for the End time.


      second step: I copy the time column from the excel table
      third step: i paste it here.
      and I get this!!!
      As you can see, for step 7 for example, my value of 1260.3 sec does not conform to my value in the Excel table which is 1260.301 sec. Why!!!

      Hi
      Now it works at least, but there are not enough significant digits.
      Go to workbench GUI main menu and Tools->Options->Appearance ->Significant digits and change it to say 9.

      All the best

      Erik
