Importing NSC Nastran combined loadsets LOAD/SPCADD

[nomates]

Hi All.

I'm having trouble importing a MSC Nastran input file I've inherited to FEMAP (10.1). FEMAP won't read the LOAD and SPCADD cards in the input file. Anyone had this problem before and know how to solve it, if possible?
Cheers
Norm.

Norm,

We've made some updates to FEMAP v10.2 that handle more LOAD and SPCADD cards in Nastran. If you would like, send me the file and I will test it in v10.2 before it ships (next Tuesday).

Thanks Mark,

I managed to recreate the loadcases using the LOAD card option in Model/Loads however a curious thing occurs when I export the output file. Only the odd numbered LOAD cards are written out. I've ten cases, but only 1,3,5,7 & 9 get exported.
The model is of a proprietary nature so I'm a afraid I can't sent it to you for testing sorry.

Cheers
Norm.
