Pass vb.net variables to parameters in Inventor

[18297BQ37M]

Could someone help me or recommend tutorials that connect vb.net with inventor, since I would like to pass vb.net variables to inventor parameters

Hi @18297BQ37M ,

Can you please provide a sample/sudo code of what your looking to achieve? Here is how to create a user parameter and set parameter value from API help.

I am looking to send the values that are entered in the text Boxes and send them to the parameters as shown in the image

Set up a sub routine and pass in the textbox value. If you need more assistance please post the complete code your using. 

Public Sub SetParameters()
    ' Get the active document.  Assumes a part document is active.
    Dim partDoc As PartDocument = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
   
    Dim oParam As Inventor.Parameter = partDoc.ComponentDefinition.Parameters.Item("Archo")
    
    ' Change the equation of the parameter with variable coming from text box.
    oParam.Expression = txtformArcho      ' "3.5 in"
    
    ' Update the document.
    ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.Update
End Sub

Here is a few link to tutorials also. Search winforms and inventor. Link1 and link2 You will have to declare and access objects differently than the ilogic environment so pay attention to getting the inventor application at the beginning.
