Translation materials and bc

Hi!
Is a posibility in Fluent to translate materials and bc etc. from one case file to another? And not to define material properties again? Like ccl.-file in CFX.

Regarding the materials. Create an empty document called mymaterials.scm or somthing else. Then go to "Create/Edit Materials" and choose this file under "User-Defined Database". Then click "Copy Materials from Case..." save and Close. Now you can use your mymaterials.scm in every other case file.

Regarding the BC, if you just change the mesh, FILE --> Read Mesh and choose just Replace Mesh. You can also write a Journal File durign your BC set up and read it again in a new case.
May be there are more options.
