FAQ's Macros - just a thought

FAQ's Macros - just a thought

FAQ's Macros - just a thought

(OP)
Do these macros work with all SW versions??  

Perhaps its an idea to state what versions they have been tested in.

I realise the date is posted beside the tip, but to make sure there is no ambiquity this could be an idea.

RE: FAQ's Macros - just a thought

I think all the macro's will work with newer version. I am not very familiar to the SW-VB-api but I guess they will never remove or change any of the existing code. Ussually they only add new methods. So all the macro's should be working as they are supposed to do...

RE: FAQ's Macros - just a thought

The API dvelops as the CAD program develops. So you can have a macro for SW2004 that will not work with SW2001, for example.

The opposite is different. SW always keep obsolete API "elements", so a macro created for SW2001 should work in SW2004.

But if you are familiar with SW API and VB programming (you don't need to be an expert on both) you can probably "convert" a macro so it can be compatible with earlier versions of SW (but you can loose some features of the macro).
