how to delete value in iproperties using vba

[akosi]

while in assembly, i would like to select a subpart and be able to clear or delete the value of ex description without opening the part file.

i can delete properties in custom prop but i cant do it in description.

ive use design tracking properties but to no avail..

It sounds like you've already got the code that gets the document containing the iProperties.  The function below will clear the description property, given a document.

Public Sub ClearDescription(Doc As Inventor.Document)
    Dim propSet As PropertySet
    Set propSet = Doc.PropertySets.Item("Design Tracking Properties")
    
    Dim descProp As Property
    Set descProp = propSet.Item("Description")
    
    descProp.value = ""
End Sub

Sub ClearDescription()

Dim oAsmDoc As AssemblyDocument
Set oAsmDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument

oAsmDoc.PropertySets.item(3).item(14).Value = ""
    
End Sub

 You can see the full details of part or sembly in watch window using VBA.
