How create a ilogic rule by VBA

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I need to add into the current Inventor file (iam, ipt. etc...) an ilogic rule using VBA code and trigger it to a specific event like "before to save the document". I'm looking for an example which I can adapt/modify.

Thanks a lot in advance

Daniele

PS: I know the "Code Injector" application that I used when I have to do that for a mass update, but in this case I need something which my colleagues can simply run with a button.

MegaJerk worked on this for a long time and ended up creating the tool that you mentioned. 

His source VB.Net is still available, which I feel would be the best starting point for you.

Adding rules is simple, but applying the event triggers is a diffrent story.

Hi Jonathan,

yes I agree VB.net is better than VBA, but I would like to add this possibility into a macro I already developed by VBA.

I planned to traslate it on VB.Net but I havn't time now, so I'm looking for an example in VBA.

Thanks, Daniele.

Daniele,

Did you ever find a way to create an ilogic rule with vba.  I am looking to do the exact same thing that you were looking for. 

Thanks, Korey

also info on the eventtriggers can be found in the source code of MegaJerk.
