Formatting drawing views with VBA

Anonymous
Not applicable
I'd like to use VBA to format some of my drawing views (moving views, changing line weight, changing scale, changing dimension scale) but after fighting with it for some time I'm not getting anywhere and the help files aren't that helpful. Can anyone know of any resources covering the basics of working with drawing views?

Then I would suggest that you not use VBA. At best
you will get extremely frustrated and at worst you will get nothing done.
Either consider going to VB 2008 or running Inventor 32 bit version for
development work.

with SP1 installed, VBA on 64bit isn't that bad. Depending on what the OP wants, it may be very "do-able". We use quite a few VBA macros on 64bit regularly.
