Reporting Min/Max of a bunch of points

[Jonathan S]

Can you report only the Min and Max of a bunch of points without reporting all of the points? 3.5 mr2 tia

Indeed you can!!! Create a Feature set from the 'bunch' then report on them in the required axis, Z for example. DON'T report this dimension!!! (OUTPUT=NONE)
Then create a GENERIC POINT as follows: (you need 1 generic point for the MAX and 1 generic point for the MIN)

SCN1 =FEAT/SET,RECT
THEO/0.05,0.3789,0.1289,0,0,1
ACTL/0.05,0.3789,0.1289,0,0,1

that'll do ya!!!
