Cut and paste some code together that fetches the mass of a part or assy that's in a drawing, and then write that to a custom property in kg & lbs that's shown in the titleblock. Last night it worked, but today running it seems to cause Inventor to crash.
Some of it came from a post Curtis_Waguespack made here

and some of it here http://blogs.rand.com/manufacturing/2011/07/inventor-ilogic-mass-to-custom-iproperties.html
Here's the code, I can't figure out what would make it crash, the only system change was that I installed Flash
'Define the open document
Dim openDoc As Document
openDoc = ThisDoc.Document
'Look at the model file referenced in the open document
Dim docFile As Document
If ThisDoc.ModelDocument IsNot Nothing Then
docFile = ThisDoc.ModelDocument
Else
MessageBox.Show("This drawing has no model reference", "iLogic")
Return
End If
'format model file name
Dim FNamePos As Long
FNamePos = InStrRev(docFile.FullFileName, "\", -1)
Dim docFName As String
docFName = Right(docFile.FullFileName, Len(docFile.FullFileName) - FNamePos)
'Get Mass of Model, convert to lbs, write to custom iproperty
Cmass = iProperties.Mass(docFName)
Round_Mass_lbs = Round(Cmass * 2.20462, 2)
Round_Mass_kg = Round(Cmass, 2)
iProperties.Value("Custom", "Mass") = Round_Mass_kg & "kg" & " " & "(" & Round_Mass_lbs & "lbs)"
