Hello,
Is there a way to display xy coordinates of undeformed mesh and the output variable for the entire part/mesh instead of selecting each node individually and writing to file using Tools->query. Thanks

Use *Node print,nset=All followed on the next line by COORDS, var. The results will be printed in the .dat file.

Have you looked into the Report>Field Output Report in the ODB Viewer? That will give ya stresses on element and the such.
 
Thank you guys. You can specify COORD in the field output in the step module. Then once the outputdatabase is created print report of results. The original coords can be determined by subtracting displacements from the COORDs.
