Can anybody help????
This might sound a bit odd & stupid but.....
I have a complex VBA macro that works fine using SolidWorks!
Because SolidWorks & Catia are made by the same company "Dassault", does anybody know if a SolidWorks VBA macro can also be used in Catia?
If not, what changes do I have to make to my SolidWorks macro to make it work in Catia?
Many thanks in advance!!!

No compatible!
Hi Darren,
SolidWorks Macro can not be directly called in CATIA environment.
I have developed macros on both SolidWorks and CATIA so I know that it is also not possible to convert a SolidWorks macro into a CATIA macro using an automated method because the API structure is a lot different. You shall need to rewrite the macro for CATIA but you can use the common logic which is independent of CAD tool.
Hope it helps!!!

Macros will not be compatible. I'm afraid you will need to completely rewrite the macro. There is a chance some of the portions of the code can be reused (such as calculations, ui, data processing etc., everything which is not related to API)
