Frame Analysis

I was wondering if anybody has tried to use the software GRAPE that was reviewed in a back issue of Racetech magazine to analysis their frame design? Trying to use the Author's Visual Basic Code just gives me errors.

I looked into grape after a friend who was building a Factory Five Cobra asked me about it. Its pretty much the same as the program we've been using since our team started, AVWin98. I haven't had time to really look to see if its better or worse than what we have since I hadn't heard of it till after the chassis design was complete, so it would've just wasted time.
