journal to update parts list

[moog2]

Can someone help me to create a journal to update my parts lists..
I've managed to do it with a macro, but not a journal.
the problem is, i'd like to splice it into an existing journal,
OR unless someone knows a way to run a macro and a journal from one button ?

this works as a macro...

NX 8.0.3.4
Macro File: X:\NX7_defaults\Paul\macro\UP-PL-7.macro
Macro Version 7.50
Macro List Language and Codeset: english 17

This ought to do:

[COLOR=blue]Option Strict Off[/color]  
[COLOR=blue]Imports[/color] System  
[COLOR=blue]Imports[/color] NXOpen  
[COLOR=blue]Imports[/color] NXOpen.UF  

[COLOR=blue]Module[/color] Module1  

    [COLOR=blue]Sub[/color] Main()  

        [COLOR=blue]Dim[/color] theSession [COLOR=blue]As[/color] Session [COLOR=blue]=[/color] Session.GetSession()  
        [COLOR=blue]Dim[/color] theUfSession [COLOR=blue]As[/color] UFSession [COLOR=blue]=[/color] UFSession.GetUFSession  

        [COLOR=blue]Dim[/color] n [COLOR=blue]As Integer =[/color] 0  
        [COLOR=blue]Dim[/color] myPlists() [COLOR=blue]As[/color] Tag  

        theUfSession.Plist.AskTags(myPlists, n)  
        [COLOR=blue]For[/color] i [COLOR=blue]As Integer =[/color] 0 [COLOR=blue]To[/color] n [COLOR=blue]-[/color] 1  
            theUfSession.Plist.Update(myPlists(i))  
        [COLOR=blue]Next[/color]  

    End [COLOR=blue]Sub[/color]  

End [COLOR=blue]Module[/color]

Good idea!
I'll have to incorporate that into my own code as well.
