hello,

I am using ARSA 12, I am searching S275 for days and can't find it, my datebase is empty (pic1). I have installed  service pack 3  , but it stll remains empty.

Also when creating tapered section my ''add'' button is inactive (pic3), what I am doing wrong ?

Please exit Robot and check whether EUROCODE.xml file exists in the following folder (AppData may be hidden folder):

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Structural\Common Data\2012\

If yes please rename or delete it, restart Robot and check availability of materials.

If no or materials are still not displayed after above operations please check whether EUROCODE.xml file exists in the following folder and you have read rights in it (ProgramData may be hidden folder):

C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Structural\Common Data\2012\Data\Mate\

Also when creating tapered section my ''add'' button is inactive (pic3), what I am doing wrong ?  

Your screen capture suggests that "Add" button is active. Can you try once again?

Thanks for answer.

I tried everything you said, but still material list does not apear.

I had same error like this http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/Autodesk-Robot-Structural/Error-in-reading-sections-data-check-the-sec... , now i can add sections only from datebase, but I can't add from ''new section'' because I always getting error - ''Incorect parameter section not displayed from base''. pic4

Creating tapered section ''add'' button is active, but it is pointless, nothing happens then I click it.

I think problem is same, my ARSA do not see eurocode or something.

Maybe i have installed SP 3 badly, dont know... 

Thanks

Problem solved

I changed regional settings (tools>preferences>languages>regional settings) and everything appeared : materials, section list. Everything is working properly now.

Thanks pp2008 for helping

I have similar problem. I don't have materials in Eurocode database.

I changed regional settings, but nothing changes.

I tried also first recommendation about deleting file EUROCODE.xml, but I don't have such file in these directories.

I have only 1 file EUROCODE.xml, but its located in: C:\Autodesk\ASD_2012_English_Win_32bit\x86\ASD\Program Files\Root\STRUCTURAL_COMMON_DATA\Data\Mate.

This is not ARSA file, but ASD.

Under ARSA I found only EUROCODE.mdb, located in: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional 2012\RESC\Data\Mate.

What else should I do to make this work?

Your screen capture suggests that you are using RSA 2012 in Win XP so look for EUROCODE.xml in the following folder:

c:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Autodesk\Structural\Common Data\2012\

Attention: Application Data is a hidden folder so to see it it may be necessary to set "Show hidden files and folders" in Tools>Folder Options>View tab of Explorer.
