Dear Friends,

I wrote a DEFINE_ON_DEMAND type code to read some data from files into FLUENT so that I can use the data in later source term calculations. After interpreting it successfully, I clicked "EXCUTE" the Excute on Demand panel and I got this error message:

FLUENT received fatal signal (ACCESS_VIOLATION)
1. Note exact events leading to error.
2. Save cas/data under new name.
3. Exit programme and restart to continue.
4. Report error to your distributor.
Error object)

I have no idea what the problem could be, I am seeking some experts' opinions.........

Here is that part of the code(The matrix definitions was defined as global variables and were not pasted here):

DEFINE_ON_DEMAND(read_rho_exeyez)
{
int numnodes;
int i;

FILE *ifp; // Pointer for the data file
FILE *kfp;
int k=0;

numnodes = xdirnodes * ydirnodes * zdirnodes; // Calculate total number of nodes in volume
ifp = fopen("Rho.dat", "r"); // Open data file for scanning
kfp = fopen("ExEyEz.dat", "r");

//*** READ IN VALUES ***//
for(i=1; i<=numnodes; i++)
{
fscanf(ifp, "%f", rho[k]);
fscanf(kfp, "%f", dvdx[k]);
fscanf(kfp, "%f", dvdy[k]);
fscanf(kfp, "%f", dvdz[k]);
k++;
}

fclose(ifp);
fclose(kfp);
}

You should put a check for the pointers:

if (NULL == if)
   Error("Something is wrong with your input file!\n");

To read data with fscanf you need pointers, which means you have to dereference the variable if is not a pointer.

fscanf(ifp, "%f", &rho[k]);

To make the code look nicer I would use i-1 instead of k.
