What do you exactly want to automate?

  • Only start the command?
  • or the complete handling of assembly creation part creation and location and file name definitions?

I want to automate complete assembly creation with default file location and only file part names as input.

This is possible but not easy. Are you familiar with programming?
I need to search for my code next week. Is this soon enough for you.

@bradeneuropeArthur,

 

I am little bit familiar with vb script and as well as iLogics.

It will be good if you can provide the sample code as early as possible, a week time is ok for me.

With i-logic this is not possible as I know. Because you cannot create application events. What do you suggest to do...
I only can provide you the vb.net code for this. But you need to provide me the add in setup from your side. In vb.net..

Arthur Knoors

Hello @bradeneuropeArthur,

 

What do you mean by add in set-up? if you can tell exactly which files you required, I will check with my IT team and provide you the files.

if you could already prepare the add in set up in vb.net then I can try to add coding to it.

Because preparing the add in selves is the most of the work I suggest that you prepare this.

So afterwards I can put this as text to the code you need to prepare...

Regards

@bradeneuropeArthur,

I checked with IT team and they told me that If you share the vb code they will create the add-in setup.

Hi,

Shouldn't be minimum input maximum output..
If I need to check the code I need to have an add in for this, so please advise your
IT to be a little more willing to help you and your organisation with providing the add in.
I am not going to prepare this add in because it is always a little different for each add in regarding settings etc and is too time consuming. The code only would not be the problem I assume.
An add in will never contain confidential information, so I don't see the problem.

Please let me know what your IT is willing to do for you.

Regards,

Regards,

Arthur Knoors
