UGNX VB.NET Functionality
UGNX VB.NET Functionality
(OP)
Hi,
I'm back with more questions about the VB.NET API for UGNX 3. It is becoming apparent that this API set is not in wide spread use. If anyone has used this I would like to get some info(e-mail, phone. UG is dragging their heels getting us a demo of the API toolset. It sounds like it had less than 10% functionality as compared to the interface functions.
I need to extract information from UG files about the assembly structure and quantity of parts for BoM's using Excel and Excel VBA. Does any current toolset allow this in UG (GRIP, etc)? If not we have been hoodwinked by the UG folks about the "integration" level in UG on a Microsoft platform.

RE: UGNX VB.NET Functionality
This can also be done through grip and in fact I had started just such a program, but then I found the assembly navigator way and discontinued work on the grip. If grip can do it I'm sure the Open C++ could also do it (though I have no experience with that). .Net will eventually be able to do it, the UG folks don't claim 100% functionality with .Net in NX3 and in fact have stated there won't be 100% for a few releases.
