NX7.5 and VB.NET

NX7.5 and VB.NET

NX7.5 and VB.NET

(OP)

Hi All,
I want to automate the various commands NX7.5. For that I work with IDF files (exchange between routing and NX).
I program with VB.NET
when I import the IDF file in NX, it gives a different name to the object.
Example: In the IDF file I have "NET_3733" when I import the file, the object will "EXTRUDED (2831)".
When I make a journal I have this function to select the object

Dim body2 As Body = CType(workPart.Bodies.FindObject("EXTRUDED(2343)"), Body)

Is that you know a function that allows me to select the object with the name that is in the original file?

Thanks.
