Unigraphics VBA

Unigraphics VBA

Unigraphics VBA

(OP)
I'm looking for some sort of reference for the VBA code supported by Unigraphics.  I've looked almost everywhere but can't weem to find anything.  

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

RE: Unigraphics VBA

That's because UG doesn't use VBA.

Customization of UG is done with UG/Open GRIP, a proprietary APT-like, Basic-like, compiled language or with UG/Open API, which is VC++ calls to a UG supplied library of headers.

Thanks Ben,

I was told that UG supported VBA by one of my co-workers.  I've done quite a bit of GRIP and Visual Basic programming, but I'm relatively new to C++ and was hoping for an easier way.  Is there some place I can find a reference for the C++ UG functions?

The only place I have found them is in the UG Documentation.

There is a rumor that NX3 will support VB, but the rumor is coming from outside of UG PLM Solutions. I asked John Baker and he said no. I have also heard that a new GRIP-like language based on the Ideas program(?) language will be in NX3 that will allow those programs to run or be converted to run in NX3.
