This is how you run a macro from the command line on an existing sim file:

Code:

starccm+ mySimFile.sim -batch "..\myotherpath\MyMacro.java"

and on a new (empty) sim file, I think it's:

Code:

starccm+ -new -batch "..\myotherpath\MyMacro.java"

You can run these from Matlab as shell commands.

thanks for your answer....
it works fine...
i knew the shell function but i thought it could be used only for .exe files...

starccm+ is indeed an executable... The full filename is "starccm+.exe".

Glad it worked.
