Can I get displacement change for a specific point?

For example, I create a block and then I give point force at on plane. Fixed the another plane. Material properties are given.
How can I generate a report of the displacement for the points on the surface of the block.

Hi
how do you define a point force on a plane ?
in V4 (3.5 slightly different)
if you have defined a point belonging to a plane and apply a point force only on that point (point => type boundary load) then you will have a singular load case, the stress and deformations around that "point" will be very wrong (whatever mesh you choose, even getting worse with finer mesh !) but the overall results might be more or less OK.
In the solution settings you can make cut planes, cut lines, or point subselection and analyse these extra solutions data sets separately with specific plots so yu can observe in detail the excessive stress build-up

Good luck
