As mentioned earlier, you can use the /FILNAME command at the Begin level to assign a jobname for all subsequently written files. Use the /ASSIGN command (Utility Menu> File> ANSYS File Options) to assign a different name, extension, and directory to a file. For example, the following command reassigns the element matrix file (identifier EMAT) to MYFILE.DAT in the "save_dir" directory:

/ASSIGN,EMAT,MYFILE,DAT,SAVE_DIR/

The "/" is a delimiter that separates the directory name from the file name. It is system-dependent, so you must use the delimiter(s) appropriate for your system. You can assign only a specific set of files. Refer to the /ASSIGN command description (in the Commands Reference) for the complete list.
