Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.Results.Setup.SetOptionBucklingMode

VB6 Procedure

Function SetOptionBucklingMode(ByVal BuckModeStart As Long, ByVal BuckModeEnd As Long, Optional ByVal BuckModeAll As Boolean = False) As Long

Parameters

BuckModeStart

The first buckling mode for which the buckling factor is reported when the BuckModeAll item is False.

BuckModeEnd

The last buckling mode for which the buckling factor is reported when the BuckModeAll item is False.

BuckModeAll

If this item is True, buckling factors are reported for all calculated buckling modes. If it is False, buckling factors are reported for the buckling modes indicated by the BuckModeStart and BuckModeEnd items.

Remarks

This function sets the buckling modes for which buckling factors are reported.

The function returns 0 if the modes are successfully set, otherwise it returns nonzero.

VBA Example

Sub SetBucklingModeData()
   'dimension variables
      Dim SapObject As Sap2000.SapObject
      Dim SapModel As cSapModel
      Dim ret As Long
      Dim BuckModeStart As Long
      Dim BuckModeEnd As Long
      Dim BuckModeAll As Boolean

   'create Sap2000 object
      Set SapObject = New SAP2000.SapObject

   'start Sap2000 application
      SapObject.ApplicationStart

   'create SapModel object
      Set SapModel = SapObject.SapModel

   'initialize model
      ret = SapModel.InitializeNewModel

   'create model from template
      ret = SapModel.File.New2DFrame(PortalFrame, 3, 124, 3, 200)

   'set buckling mode data
      ret = SapModel.Results.Setup.SetOptionBucklingMode(1, 1)

   'close Sap2000
      SapObject.ApplicationExit False
      Set SapModel = Nothing
      Set SapObject = Nothing
