Stephen, I got your data and tried again. Once again I cannot replicate your error. When I open up the csv file in Excel, I get the number of rows I expect and the bounds of Y are what I expect. I tried both on a serial process and using a parallel job (in case there was a problem with writing CSV in parallel, which there has been in the past but has since been fixed).
When you sent the file to me, you mentioned some further instructions I didn't understand about modifying the csv file and loading it indirectly through an inp file. I don't know anything about the inp format (and there appear to be three readers of different formats that expect that extension), but perhaps the real problem is in the inp reader? Did you try looking at the csv file directly in a text editor or spreadsheet program? -Ken On 3/11/15, 6:57 AM, "Stephen Wornom" <stephen.wor...@inria.fr> wrote: >Moreland, Kenneth wrote: >> Is there any way you can share your data?
