Hi Zhang.
Just a last info: since my last mail, I have made some tests with old
binary Tecplot (.plt) files, and I discovered that some files are
readable, but some files are not readable and give the same error
message. In fact, it depends on the Tecplot version that has built these
files. So, if you have problems with old (.plt) files, you may try to
convert them into a recent version of the (.plt) format using a recent
Tecplot release before reading them with Paraview.
Have a good week-end.
Richard.

Hello.
Glad to see that you have solved your problem. It is true that you
need the Vislt software for reading Tecplot files, but this software
is included in the last Paraview release 3.98.1. I am using the last
binaries found on the Paraview download pages, and I can read Tecplot
binary or ASCII files without adding software.
On older Paraview releases, the Vislt software was delivered as a
plugin that was not activated by default. In that case, you had to go
through the menu "Tools->Manage plugins", then select the "Vislt"
plugin, click the "Load selected" button, close Paraview, and finally
reopen Paraview to get the plugin activated. So, check your Paraview
version, and you may want to update it for the last 3.98.1 release.
But take care: there are two Tecplot readers. If you open a (.tp)
ASCII Tecplot file, you will have the choice between "Tecplot Files"
or "Tecplot Files (Vislt)". I don't know exactly what are the
differences, but if a reader fails, try the other.
But the Tecplot readers are not perfect, and that may explain your
ERROR message. Sometimes, with Tecplot ASCII files, I have to remove
from the header some options that the readers do not recognize. Try to
have the simplest headers without "exotic" options when using ASCII
files, and the readers will be OK.
If you have again problems with (.plt) files, feel free to provide a
(short) sample file.

dear Richard:
many thanks for your reply. i am form China, yesterday i came
across the paraview and it did get my interests, so i want to use
paraview instead of tecplot.
it does not work when adopt your opinion, the error reminder message
is that:

Hello.
Paraview 3.98.1 is able to read Tecplot ASCII or Binary files.
For Tecplot (.plt) files, menu "File->Open" and choose "Tecplot Binary
Files (Vislt) (*.plt)" in the "Files of type" list before selecting your
(.plt) file.
Richard.
