search for PARAM card

Altair Forum User

Hi,

 

Using tcl, I want to find whether any PARAM card is already defined or not, and if found, edit it. Also similary if I want find any Load collectors or load steps already defined (by name), is there any way to do that ?

 

Thanks.

You may get some useful information from attached macro.Requesting tcl experts to comment.
