I want to use a torgue. After a few days analysing PRO/ME iam not able to use it and count it. Every time a have zero stress. Iam not sure about specifiing the moment load because i think that moment load X is around axis x but the arrow of moment is parallel with axis. Im so confused

You have to create a moment load using total load at point.
Add a datum point at the centre of the surface where you want to apply the torque, then as you add the load to the surface, under the distribution pull down (under advanced) choose "Total Load at Point", pick the point and enter your moment load value. If you click Preview, you should see that the load is a torque load.
 
Thanks for that John. I had a similar issue a while back and this worked great!
