The Analysis application, located on the main form, appears when selected. Read Results as the selected Action allows the results data to be read into or attached to the Patran (or MSC.AFEA) database from a text (jobname.t19) or binary (jobname.t16) Marc results file.

This default process of attaching a results file is referred to as Direct Results Access (DRA). Some more details are given in Direct Results Access, 362.
