Auto file rename with solidworks and VB
Auto file rename with solidworks and VB
(OP)
Hi,
I like to automate the renameing of solidworks files (numbers). I tried to do this with recorded "save as" code in VB but the references in solidworks drawings are then broken. Is there anny vb code with the "solidworks rename" type of rename?
Thanks
Ronald

The reference then updates, but you also have to do a drawing file save as . . .
Can the part file reference in the drawing file be changed with a VB program?? hmmm.
