How can I view the loads in these beams/nodes?

How can I view the loads in these beams/nodes?

(OP)
Hi All,

I am new to ANSYS Classic FEA and have a simple question.

If I have "scripted" in a few beams w/ beam releases etc, how can I view the loads in these beams/nodes?

They are BEAM44 elements and I have keyopt (6) set to 1; ie., Printout member forces and moments in the element coordinate system.

 I have found the PRRSOL,FX command; however, the output is truncatd and I do not know the node number.  Because I scripted it, I know the node name; but....


Thanks
Mark
