ilogic and vault. place and replace.

[waynehelley]

Hi all,

I currently using Inventor 2013 and rely on the following commands in ilogic;

Replace component-

Component.Replace("Part Name", "File name, location and extension", True)

Place component with iMates

oAsmCompDef = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ComponentDefinition
Dim oOccEnumerator As ComponentOccurrencesEnumerator
oOccEnumerator = oAsmCompDef.Occurrences.AddUsingiMates("File name, location and extension", False)

The problem I have is if a file doesn't exist on my C drive, ilogic will error out.  I have heard mention in other threads that in Inventor 2014, Inventor will know to try and look for parts in Vault before erroring out.

Would anybody be able to tell me more details about this??  Is it just for the 'Replace' command or is it likely to work for the 'Place component with iMates' command I use too??

Did you find out if this is true?
