Hi, i'm using hypermesh as pre-processor and performing some FEAs with Nastran. 
i'm looking for a way to create in my hypermesh model the new BCTABLE e BCCONECT that are used starting from nastran 2013.1. 
In other words, I need to put in Hypermesh something like this:

 

$$------------------------------------------------------------------------------$BCBODY1,201,,3D,DEFORM,101BCPROP,101,4BCBODY1,202,,3D,DEFORM,102BCPROP,102,9BCBODY1,203,,3D,DEFORM,103BCPROP,103,90$.......$.......$.......$.......$.......$.......$.......$.......$.......$.......$.......BCTABL1  0       2001    2002BCONECT  2001    3001            203     201bconect  2002    3002            203     202bconprg  3001           IGLUE    3       ICOORD  1       ERROR   0.005         COPTS   61     COPTM    61bconprg  3002           IGLUE    3       ICOORD  1       ERROR   0.007         COPTS   61     COPTM    61BCTABL1  1       2001    2002BCPARA,0,NLGLUE,0$$------------------------------------------------------------------------------$
since i'm a little bit tired of use the old-fashion-way to insert this on bdf file.

    Hello,

    I do not understand what you described

    But to import/export this new data, it is possible by customizing nastran template and reader

    Ask altair hotline what version of nastran that hypermesh support till now

    if it not nastran 2013 then customizing template is exactly what you need to do

    do you try looking for name of the cards in pulldown menu Tools>Create Cards ?
