Weldment Cut-list item rename

Weldment Cut-list item rename

Weldment Cut-list item rename

(OP)
I have been trying to rename a cutlist item when in a part file...  For example once a cutlist is created it has the default name of "Cut-List-Item1"  i would like a Macro that can change that name.... i have tried to record the action and it does but once i replay it, it will not change the name... it does however select the correct folder


code i am using but doesn't rename


CODE

Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
Set Part = swApp.ActiveDoc
Set SelMgr = Part.SelectionManager
Part.ClearSelection2 True
boolstatus = Part.Extension.SelectByID2("Cut-List-Item1", "SUBWELDFOLDER", 0, 0, 0, True, 0, Nothing, 0)
Part. 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, "666"
