iLogic idw to Inventor dwg

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I would like to use iLogics to convert our idw's to inventor dwg's and add them to vault (I'm not sure if the vault part is possible but the conversion would be a great help).  When i try to use the ThisDoc.Document.SaveAs command it wants to export as an AutoCAD drawing and not as an Inventor drawing.  

I'm running 2010 SP3 64-bit

Thanks for any help

It is better and easier when you use VBA

For Example:

Private Sub SaveInventorDWG()

      Dim oDoc as DrawingDocument

      Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument

      ' oFullFileName is the full file name of your desire dwg drawing, e.g. "E:\123.dwg")  

      oDoc.SaveAsInventorDWG(oFullFileName, True)

End Sub

Finished!

I still think that using VBA is better, we can create a module inside ground ivb file, and create a button in drawing environment. Everytime we want to convert, we only need to press one button.

The question is iLogic can do this as simple as VBA or not?

Thanks for the support.  I found it easier to use VBA with the button to do the conversion and manualy checkin to vault.  The next step is to automate the checkin but that will take some more digging.
