Accurate Bounding box Length and Width

(OP)
Hi,
The bounding box macro is a subject that alot of forums have had. I have searched high and low for one that will get get the exact rectangle of a any part weather it is on an angle or lined up with xyz, and have had no luck. There is about 3 or 4 different ones online that I have found, I think there is about 4 different ones in the API help for Solidworks. As soon as the part is not lined up with xyz then they all fail. I am kind of green in API yet so for me to make one is kind of far fetched. My question is, does somebody have one that can do this that they are willing to share or sell ?
