I have problem to change
the material properties in my model. I need your help, i spend more than week
to solve this problem. please try to help me.

 I want to change the
material properties in the second step. I use the *field key words, but
i might perform a mistake that is why, it did not work. i find that the in the
second step the young's modulus still the one which i used in the first ste.

the model is so simple, it is a block, i squeeze this block, i made a set its name is all. I name this set when i define the section. I read some posts that the name of the set should correspond to the instance (assembly) i try to use this name, but it did not work also. 

*Material ,
name=Material-1
*Elastic, dependencies=1
 3E+06, 0.3, ,  0.
30000., 0.3, ,  1.

 *Initial
conditions,type=field,variable=1
All,0

 ** STEP: Step-1
*Step, name=Step-1
*Static
1., 1., 1e-05, 1.

 ** STEP: Step-2
*Step, name=Step-2
*Static
1., 1., 1e-05, 1.
*Field, variable=1
All,1

 Thank you.

Dear All,

 I attached part of input file,the begining of the input file is nodal co-ordinates and element connectivity, i did not attach this part. the model is so simple, it is a uniaxial compression for a block. i wish if any one can help me find the error in the input file,i.e, why i could not change the material properties in the second step using the *filed keyword.
