The Error Check dialog checks your LS-DYNA deck for potential problems with components, properties,
materials, rigids, joints, boundary conditions, and other entities and reports them
on-screen.
The report identifies the problem entity by ID, describes the error, and then enables
you to isolate the entity in the model and quickly make changes.
