TRICKY - Through VB, open a file on a remote computer and perform operations
Hi All,
I have some users who will need to view a DWF file
of an Inventor drawing. The thing is they do not have Inventor on their
workstation.
What I'd like to do through VB is to remotely open
the source file in question on another known PC that has Inventor installed,
perform the file save to DWF and that's it....Is this at all possible, or has
anyone done anything similar?

The DWF's I make will eventually be run through a
Batch Print routine, so I will need to create DWF's, and unfortunately VV3 does
not support Inventor files through the ACtiveX, which is why I'm in this
predicament in the first place....any other ideas?

Actually I found ascript so that the actual
Inventor users can have a DWF saved on every document save, this I believe
should give me a constant up to date version in a DWF format. Do you think this
would be acceptible?
The thing is, there is still the possibility that I
would like to run a macro on a remote workstation running Inventor. I wonder if
this is still possible...
