Hi Mam. Can we paste values from excel to the spreadsheet form?
How about the import command just at the left side of the auto generation button, how can we use it? Thanks.

Hello,

In the [spreed sheet form], you can paste values from excel to the spreadsheet form. And the fn.LCB file format can be imported using [Import] option.
The format of the fn.LCB file is as follows: Serial Number, Combination method, Unit load condition i, Load factor i, Unit load condition j, Load factor j, Load combination condition k, Load factor k, Load combination condition l, Load factor l Ex) 1, 1, 1.0, 2, 1.0 2, 1, 1.4, 2, 1.7 Note Combination method Blank, 0: Add 1: Envelope 2: ABS 3: SRSS

Thank you.

Best regards,
