Uhhhhh.....
From the link above, to run iLogic from VBA environment...
Public Sub LaunchMyRule1() '<--- "LaunchMyRule1" would be what shows up in the toolbar.
RuniLogic "MyRule1"
End Sub
Public Sub LaunchMyRule2()
RuniLogic "MyRule2"
End Sub
Public Sub RuniLogic(ByVal RuleName As String)
Dim iLogicAuto As Object
Dim oDoc As Document
Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
If oDoc Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Missing Inventor Document"
Exit Sub
End If
Set iLogicAuto = GetiLogicAddin(ThisApplication)
If (iLogicAuto Is Nothing) Then Exit Sub
iLogicAuto.RunExternalRule oDoc, RuleName
End Sub
Function GetiLogicAddin(oApplication As Inventor.Application) As Object
Dim addIns As ApplicationAddIns
Set addIns = oApplication.ApplicationAddIns
Dim addIn As ApplicationAddIn
Dim customAddIn As ApplicationAddIn
For Each addIn In addIns
If (addIn.ClassIdString = "{3BDD8D79-2179-4B11-8A5A-257B1C0263AC}") Then
Set customAddIn = addIn
Exit For
End If
Next
Set GetiLogicAddin = customAddIn
End Function
As an extra, to run VBA from iLogic, it looks something like this:
Dim invApp As Inventor.Application invApp = ThisApplication
'To implement, you almost certainly need to change the indices (values in brackets) to match your code. invApp.VBAProjects(1).InventorVBAComponents("AppEventController").InventorVBAMembers("StartEvent").Execute
