I often use

 

Dim oDoc As Document

oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument

 

 

If you will be running a rule in a part that's activated from within an assembly file, you should also perform a check on the ActivatedObject/ActiveEditDocument to ensure that the rule is pulling the PART as the oDoc, since calling ActiveDocument will grab the ASSEMBLY.
