Add Remote Load Example (C#)

This example shows how to add a remote load to a static study.

NOTE: To get persistent reference identifiers (PIDs) for model selections, you can use pidcollector.exe or IModelDocExtension::GetPersistReference3.

//----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Add the SOLIDWORKS Simulation as an add-in (in SOLIDWORKS, click 
//    Tools > Add-ins > SOLIDWORKS Simulation > OK).

// 2. Add the SOLIDWORKS Simulation primary interop assembly as a reference
//    (in the IDE, click Project > Add Reference > .NET > 
//    SolidWorks.Interop.cosworks > OK).
// 3. Ensure that the specified material library exists.
// 4. Open public_documents\tutorial\api\Mxd_asm.sldasm.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. Creates study, Static_Mixed6.
// 2. Inspect the Immediate window for the remote load settings and
//    analysis results.
//
// NOTE: Because the model is used elsewhere, do not save changes.
