Convertin from "mm" to "m" for noise analysis in Ensight--->HOW??!!!

Hi everybody,
I have run some transient 3-D files in CFX 11. Now I want to import the results to "Ensight" software for noise analysis.

As i know "Ensight" can just work with SI units ( i.e. "m") and my mesh dimension is in "mm".

How can I converst the mesh dymensions and to "mm" in the "*.res" file? Is it possible? Do you have any experience to deal with this problem in "Ensight"?

Regards,

I am not sure about this but I think CFX puts the mesh in the base length units, which is metres for SI. You could change this by using a strange units system, but why bother? Can't you just set Ensight to import the mesh in metres?
