Hey everyone,
I have been struggling for days to find one small bug in my Solidworks API. I am also VERY new to API programming. I've posted this problem on the SolidWorks API forum, but I have only gotten one response to this particular problem. The responder stated that the macro worked fine for him and he did not encounter the problems I listed. He was using Solidworks 2008; I am using Solidworks 2007.
What my API does:
1. If I run the macro when a Part or Assembly is open, it will bring up a window that promps the user to input a set of data (ie, project, finish, vendor, etc.)
2. If I run the macro when a Drawing is open, it will bring up a different window that propmps the user for different data (ie, Checker, Manufacturing Approval, etc.)
The problems:
1. When a Drawing file is open, the user form does not display existing Properties information (like it does when a part or assembly is open).
2. When a Drawing file is open, the drop down menus do not work (again, they work when a part or assembly file is open).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. My API is attached.
Thanks,
Tara
