    Hi guys,

     

    Sorry this is a very vauge one but maybe somebody can help.

     

    I downloaded the attached ilogic at some point not too long ago but what it does is unclear to me.  I would just like to know why I downloaded it as it must have some merits to my workflow.  I have tried to run it but it fails (inv2011).

     

    thanks for any help.

    It's a macro.... just engaged my brain!

     

    Looks like it creates layers based on the parts in an assembly.  Maybe somebody can shed more light on it if they are so inclined.

     

    PS I have now started my own spreadsheet to track and document the bits of code I have acquired thanks to the good people on here.

     

    Cheers,

    Guy

    Rather than use a spreadsheet to store such code might i suggest that you store the code as snippets . You can name the snippet to remind you of its purpose and you can place the code into your rules directly

    Thanks for the advice.  I'm new to this so could you recommend how best to go about that?

    Thanks.  Nothing as yet on the work blackberry but proably the video size is to do with that.  Will check at work tomorrow.
