Retrieve design variables using VAR() in both single and monte carlo run

RuneDS

I use the VAR() function to retrieve design variables in skill/ocean scripts for post processing. When running monte carlo simulations, the script wont work due to VAR("variable") returning a wave of variables. Is there a way to use VAR() or an equivalent function for getting design variables in scalar form without making separate scripts for single and monte carlo/sweeps?

    Hi Andrew,

    First of all thank you for answering to such an old post. I agree appending an old post is not the best way, but it was the only one I found related to the same matter. For future post (this was actually my first one) I take your advice into account,.

    I am using IC6.1.6 with MMSIM 12.1. The issue is that in "single run, sweep and corners" simulation the VAR() function works well but not if I run monte carlo. I have tried to substitue the VAR() function by a numerical value (just as workaround) on monte carlo analysis and it works.

    Any idea?

    Regards,

    Antonio
