Hi all

I'm trying to make a vb.net app to save all assemblies in a assembly as a edrawing file.

But i can't figure out why this code below isnt working.

There must be something obvious that i don't see but i spend quite some time now trying different ways but can't seem to figure it out.

could you please help?

Please find below the code:

sub main

       Frm_start.Cursor = Cursors.AppStarting

        Dim swApp As SldWorks

        Dim swModel As ModelDoc2

        Dim swConf As Configuration

        Dim swConfMgr As ConfigurationManager

        Dim swDerivConf As Configuration

        swApp = GetObject(, "sldworks.application")

        Dim swm As ModelDoc2 = swApp.ActiveDoc

        'get model

        swModel = swm

        'check if assembly

        Dim modeltype As Integer = swModel.GetType

        If modeltype <> 2 Then

            MsgBox("FUNCTIONNE UNIQUEMENT SUR DES ASSEMBLAGES")

            Exit Sub

        End If

        Dim pathedrawing As String = fileloc("pathglobal") & "EASM\"

        Dim filename As String = swModel.GetPathName

        Dim fn As String = pathedrawing & gettextfromright(gettextfromright(filename, ".", 0), "\", 1) & "(" & SW_get_custom_properties("Description") & ").easm"

        Dim fns As New List(Of String)

        fns.Add(fn)

        swModel.SaveAs4(fn, 0, 0, 0, 0)

        Dim swass As AssemblyDoc = swModel

        Dim vcomponents As Object = swass.GetComponents(True)

        Dim swc As Component

        Dim comc As Integer = swass.GetComponentCount(True)

        'each component check

        For a = 0 To comc - 1

            swc = vcomponents(a)

            Dim cn As String = swc.GetPathName

            'check assembly

            Dim assy As Boolean = False

            If cn.Contains(".SLDASM") = True Then

                assy = True

            End If

            If cn.Contains(".sldasm") = True Then

                assy = True

            End If

            If assy = False Then

                Continue For

            End If

            Dim refconfig As String = swc.ReferencedConfiguration

            Dim fileerror As Integer

            Dim filewarning As Integer

            swModel = swApp.OpenDoc6(cn, swDocumentTypes_e.swDocASSEMBLY, swOpenDocOptions_e.swOpenDocOptions_Silent, refconfig, fileerror, filewarning)

            Dim pthea As String = pathedrawing & gettextfromright(gettextfromright(swModel.GetPathName, ".", 0) & ".easm", "\", 1)

            swModel.SaveAs3(pthea, 0, 0)

            fns.Add(pthea)

        Next

        Dim msg As String = ""

        For Each f In fns

            msg = msg & vbNewLine & f

        Next

        MsgBox("SAVED: " & msg)

        Frm_start.Cursor = Cursors.Default

end sub
