RE: VBA autocad property

(OP)
I use AutoCad 2000.
Here is some code :
Dim ObjHatch As Object
Dim HatchObj As AcadHatch
For Each ObjHatch In ThisDrawing.ModelSpace
    If ObjHatch.ObjectName = "AcDbHatch" And ObjHatch.Layer = "2" Then
        If ObjHatch.PatternName = "SOLID" Then
            ObjHatch.PatternName = "ANGLE"
            
            HatchObj.Evaluate
            ThisDrawing.Regen acActiveViewport
        End If
    End If
Next

In fact I must change all the Hatch who have Solid as PatternName property.I must put a other PatternName but Something wrong.
Thanks for your help

RE: VBA autocad property

Looking at the Developer help for PatternName, I found that changing this property does not change the pattern type.
