Hello there.

In vbscript(.CATvbs), all variables must be declared as variants:

Dim NewPart
or
Dim NewPart as variant

If you create your macro as an .CATScript, your code should work. The V5 automation documentation examples are mainly for CATScript.

I am trying to design a feature which will let system to find bounding box of given curve or part. Example of such thing can be seen in 'Measure' utility of V5.

hmm... I'm by no means a V5 programming guru, but that seems like something more suited to CAA then VBA.
