Folder Saving

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have  a PDF iLogic code that batch saves all referenced drawings from the top level drawing.  the issue I am having is I would like to save the referenced drawings in their corresponding files but in my PDF folder(I save assemblies, sub assemblies, and parts in different folders). Currently they save in the top level assembly folder.  My code is attached below.

 

Thank you in advance.

 

cheers, 

Josh

UPDATE:

 

I have them saving in the correct folders. although now they are creating a new folder for the drawings inside of the correct folder. While creating the folder it is leaving the PDF nameless. 

 

Cheers, 

Josh

oDataMedium.FileName = oFolder & "\" & oFileName & ".pdf"

should become something like:

 

 

oDataMedium.FileName = System.IO.Path.Combine(System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(oDoc.FullFileName), System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(oDoc.FullFileName)) & ".pdf"

 

given that oDoc is the name of the file you are making a drawing of.
