Hi, supernova1387: This geometry is doable in Solidworks. If you section the geometry, along planes parallel to either YZ or ZX direction, you will get ellipses. Solidworks has "Partial Ellipse" or "Ellipse" command which allow you to create ellipses. You can then create your surface through...

Hi, I tried a repair. It still has the same problem. I googled swVBAServer and found some discussion on it related to virus. Not sure if it is a virus. Best regards, Alex

Hi, Matt: I did clear out the registry, but it did not help. Best regards, Alex

Hi, Something happened to my Solidworks recently. Now, I can not use any Macro. Whenever I try to run a macro, the following message appears: "swVBAServer has stopped working." I talked to my VAR, and did not get a solution. Do you folks know what may cause this problem? Best regards...

Hi, Interesting! It is a big bug, isn't it? BTW, how do you use global vars in a *.txt file? Best regards, Alex

Hi, I got a reply from SW that confirmed the issue. SW has been working on it. Best regards, Alex

Hi, Deepak: So, you have the same issue. It seems a bug. I am requesting a SPR via VAR with this issue. Equations that are tied to file names do get updated during P&G with file name changes. Best regards, Alex

Hi, coolio63: Could you post your assembly models with components? Discrepanies in mass are not very likely. Best regards, Alex

Hi, I am having an issue with "Save As" command. When I save an assembly model (*.sldasm) together with selective components, SW indicated that I saved them successfully. But equations I have in eithor parts' model or the assembly model do not get updated to file names of the new created...

Hi, gwubs: I use assembly cuts quite often, but I never experienced errors in mass. Best regards, Alex

Hi, Bingo123: "Sub main" is a startup form to an application. It seems that you do not have this startup form. Normally, a VB project can have many forms (windows), and developers need to specify which form that you want to assign the startup form. It also seem swApp object is not defined...

Hi, btbulldog: I did not see your typical "assemblies" so I do not know complexity of your "asemblies". It sounds your "assembly" is actually more of a part than an "assembly". If I were you, I would use a part for what you are trying to achieve. You really do not need either DriveWorks or...

Hi, Bingo123: You will need to use swApp.OpenDoc(?) method. Please search "Open Document Silently Example" under Solidworks API help menu. Alternatively, you can use "Shell" command, which can open any type of documents as long as there is associated application in your system. You do not...

Hi, Bingo123: What do you means by "remotely"? Best regards, Alex

Hi, Never mind. I found the reference "SolidWorks 2010 Commands type library", and it is in "C:\Program Files\SolidWorks 2010\SolidWorks\swcommands.tlb" Best regards, Alex

Hi, Handleman: Thanks for your advice! To run swCommands_*, I need "SolidWorks 2010 Commands Type Library". But I am unable to find this reference with my SW2010 installed Win7 64. Do you know if SW2010 has a commands type library? Best regards, Alex

Hi, It seems that "Sendkeys" command is no longer supported with 64 bit Windows system (Vista and Win7). I found many users are having the same issue with "Sendkeys" as I am. Now back to my question, how do you use "Invert Selection" in macro? Is there an API command in Solidworks for...

Hi, I used to use this code in my macro with SW2008 (where "H" is a shortcut for "Hide" command). But since I upgraded my Solidwork to 2010, it seems "SendKeys" command no longer work. Does anyone know if "SendKeys" is no longer supported? Or is there a new syntax for this command? Best...
