Main assembly activation via vba

[k14348]

Hi,

   i have one main assembly with 200 nos. of sub assemblies. In my browser i will roll down (by 10 rotation of mouse wheel) and edit one of my sub assembly. once i complete my work in sub assembly now i want to activate main assembly by running a macro.

hello K14348,

you should be able to do that with this code:

' Get the CommandManager object.

Dim oCommandMgr As CommandManager

set oCommandMgr = _inventorApplication.CommandManager

' Get control definition for the line command.

Dim oControlDef As ControlDefinition

Set oControlDef = oCommandMgr.ControlDefinitions.Item("AppReturnTopCmd")

' Execute the command.

Call oControlDef.Execute()

in the yellow line, replace oDoc with Thisapplication, and than it should work.

so

set oCommandMgr = Thisapplication.CommandManager

the command manager does not belong to the document, but to the application
