Here are some specifications:

* I added the Abaqus headers to the Additional Include Directories in Visual Studio 2019 (Windows 10) and I included "odb_API.h" on top of my code

* The necessary Abaqus libs are added to the Additional Dependencies under Linker --> Input

* My system variable PATH contains the path to the Abaqus dll's ("abaqus_dir\code\bin")

My code compiles, but an Exception is throws as soon as I try to open the odb file. This does not cause an error for small operations on small odb's, but as soon as the mesh grows even beyond a few 100 nodes, the code crashes.

Does anybody have experience with this type of problem?

Kind regards,

Jana
