file where BCTABLE is not appearing even I am using contact table to define master and slave. with exported bdf it is giving fatal error. please find the attached bdf herein
This doesn't seem correct- it should have the BCONTACT=0 above the first subcase and then the BCTABL1/BCONECT info in the bulk data, matching anything special you defined. I used your bdf and imported into Patran 2017, redefined the contact bodies and recreated the load case/BCTABLE... then exported a new bdf and it is correct. See the attached. You might just need to start over.
