Thank you very much for your explanation.
Now I managed to rename the welded symbol.
(If I rename it in the drawing resources folder luckily also the instance on the drawing sheet gets renamed by inventor. When I afterwards update the drawing symbol from my template, the sketch symbol gets updated/changed.)
I just add my few lines of code to rename the sketch symbol here, maybe it is useful for someone.
Dim oDrawDoc As DrawingDocument = ThisDoc.Document
'This is the name of the symbol
Dim SymbolName As String = "Welding Data"
Dim oldSymbolName As String = "Welding Data Stainless Steel"
'check file type
If ThisDoc.Document.DocumentType <> kDrawingDocumentObject Then
Return
End If
Dim oSymbolDef As SketchedSymbolDefinition = Nothing
Try
oSymbolDef = ThisDrawing.Document.SketchedSymbolDefinitions.Item(oldSymbolName)
oSymbolDef.Name = SymbolName
Catch
'MsgBox ("was no symbol there")
End Try
