Function DeleteLoadForce(ByVal Name As String, ByVal LoadCase As String, Optional ByVal ItemType As eItemType = Object) As Long

Parameters

Name

The name of a point object or a group depending on the value selected for ItemType item.

The name of a defined load case.

ItemType

This is one of the following items from the eItemType enumeration.

Object = 0

Group = 1

SelectedObjects = 2

If Object is selected, the Name item refers to a point object. The point load assignments, for the specified load case, made to that point object, are removed.

If Group is selected, the Name item refers to a group. The point load assignments, for the specified load case, made to all point objects in the group, are removed.

If SelectedObjects is selected, the Name item is ignored. The point load assignments, for the specified load case, made to all selected point objects, are removed.

Remarks

This function deletes all point load assignments, for the specified load case, from the specified point object(s).

The function returns zero if the load assignments are successfully deleted, otherwise it returns a nonzero value.
