    Using a macro is very doable. The easiest way to get the API calls is to record the steps to make the changes. Once you have that; add the user interface. We use gauge tables along with sldWorks.FeatureManager. For the UI we use property manager pages, which eliminate problems with 32bit VBA and 64bit Solidworks.
