handleman,
My experience is that most SW API calls return 1 for true bool value wereas VBA returns -1 (cint(True)). What am I missing here?

I have seen a macro for calculating the external perimeter of a part but as for counting holes and taps, it may depend whether they are put in using holewizard or just extruded cuts.

Personally, I do not like inserting the assembly method. With the PLM system we use that means that all the parts of the assembly must be downloaded from the vault just to view the drawing. In some cases this may be several hundred parts so where it may only take less than a minute to display...
I have SW2005, SW2006, SW2007 and SW2008 installed on one machine in that order with no problems. Just follow CBL's link and you should be Okay.

I do not know if you can find that out from the way you are doing it; I have never tried it. I did a semi-quick look through API help but could not find any straightforward method. In the past, I wrote a macro that cycled through each sheet, got the tableannotation object associated...
beachcomber,
From my further experimentation, I discovered that only broken links in the current assembly are fixed when you save. Any broken links in assemblies under the current assembly are not fixed unless you open those assemblies and save. This continues down to as many assemblies...
beachcomber,
So far I have not seen your problem of "not always" but I believe I have not gone any deeper than top level. I have a larger assemlby that goes at least two levels deep. I will try that one and post my results.

You can start by downloading VB.net express (free download) from Microsoft. There was a free tutorial available a few months back. That is were I would start.

What we do is create a retracted mate, an extended mate, a limit mate and no (floating) mate because you cannot mate the cylinder to a locked position in an upper level assembly with the limit mate active. I would not recommend messing around with a design table in this case. You can see you...

Gildashard,
That surprises you? Going from SP2.0 to SP4.0 caused just as many problems as it fixed for us. Hopefully the problems I have were addressed (ws have several SPRs). I will have to check out what was fixed.

I probably did not spend enough time looking through the help files but can someone point me to where I can find help on how to set up the link management file?
dy,
Thanks for the reply. I was hoping there was a easier way than moving the files to the same folder. There are over 22,000 files scattered over 1,000 folders that I would have to move (I believe the files were uploaded from a ftp site). I do not need all of them for what I am working on...
This dialog box pops up when I open an assembly telling me that certain files cannot be found. The assembly and parts came from an outside source so I cannot duplicate the folder structure. Short of putting all the files in the same folder, how do I re-associate the new folder locations to the...
