I would like insert my modified version of energy plus. How I can do it.
I have administrative rights, but I can't.
Thank you very much for possible suggestion.

Luca,

To select your own version of EnergyPlus (assumed to be an exe implementation), open the Programs options dialog, select the EnergyPlus tab and click on the browse button to the right to open the list of available options. Choose the 'Version 1.2.3.031 (EXE supplied by DOE)' even if the version you have developed is based on a more recent version of EnergyPlus.

Now just set the folder where your EnergyPlus executable is located and you should be ready to run.

We will be adding a new category for EnergyPlus versions called 'Custom' to allow you to add your own versions to the list in the next release.

Please let me know how you get on.

Regards
Andy

Thank you very much for your suggestion.
I have resolved my problem, the only thing I want feedback is that I need copy the ExpandObject.exe from "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Impostazioni locali\Dati applicazioni\DesignBuilder\EnergyPlus" folder, to the destination folder where I have my own version of energyplus, by myself because I had an error.
I hope this is helpful for team work, thank very much
Luca
