You might confuse ActiveX/COM API with AutoCAD VBA. While VBA is exclusively use AutoCAD ActiveX/COM API, other languages, be it .NET language or not, can also use AutoCAD ActiveX/COM API, especially when you do AutoCAD .NET API plugin (the topic of this forum), you can still use AutoCAD ActiveX/COM API in the mix with AutoCAD .NET API code. But you definitely cannot mix AutoCAD VBA code with C# or VBB.NET.

If you feel somehow ActiveX/COM API might fit your need after your reading and want to know more, you might as well describe a bit more on what you want to do, so that any suggestions other may provide would be more meaningful.

thank you @norman.yuan for this explaining ‌‌👍
I'm not very good in programming ,still in first step 😊.

I found that AutoCAD .NET API harder than vba/activex ,but fast in writing codes,

because of intellisense and code fixing.

clearly : trying to coding VBA outside off VBA IDE,(Microsoft Visual Studio for example)
