(OP)
Hello,
I was wondering if someone could advise on running ANSYS in batch mode on a 64bit windows PC.

From the help file I've found I need to call the following commands in a command window:

set ANSYS145_PRODUCT=ANE3FL
set ANS_CONSEC=YES
"C:\Program Files\Ansys Inc\V145\ANSYS\bin\winx64
\ansys145" -b -i vm1.dat -o vm1.out

Where vm1.dat is the input file and vm1.out is the output file. In the output file I would like to place the values of a series of parameters that can be read by a second program. The question I've got is how can I specify what is in the output file? Is the output file the going to give me a copy of the solve.out file and can't be easily changed include the output parameters I require?
If so in my input file should I add some commands to create a different output file that gives me the data I want to pass onto the next program?
Many thanks
George
