Using MATLAB to automate HyperSizer

[dmunk]

Hi

I am having trouble automating HyperFEA through MATLAB. I keep getting this error and I'm not sure how to get around it:

Error using COM.HyperSizer_Application/OpenDatabase
Invoke Error, Dispatch Exception:
Source: Application
Description: Database Write Permission Required

How do I get permission?

Thanks

You are probably trying to open a Training database that ships with HyperSizer. These are read-only files. If you create a new database, and then import projects from the Training database you should be able to get up and running.

Hello

Another way to get the same error message is to pass a valid file that is not a database, like for example the HyperSizer.exe file.
