Stitching Surface from Assembly

I have a large number of composite surfaces (from a client igs file) that can be easily converted into solids through the process of [Open Component]->[Expand Tree]->[Select Composite Surface]->[Stitch Tool]->[Click Ok]. The issue is there is a large number of these components making it tedious and less effective to open each individual component and repeat the above procedure. For that reason I would like to develop a simple tool at the assembly level which will allow me to select either individual components or (if not extremely difficult to implement) multiple components and click a single button to repeat the procedure above automatically. The component structure is consistent throughout the assembly. Namely the component name is different but each component only contains 1 composite surface and they are all named the same, ie "composite1". An example of which I have shown below: *Assembly Level* [Object 1] [Object 2] *Part Level for Object 1* [Object 1]->[Composite1] *Part Level for Object 2* [Object 2]->[Composite1] My trouble comes in trying to find similar codes or examples which I may be able to duplicate such things. In particular I can find no references relating on how to automate an existing procedure on the part level, and how to initiate that procedure from the assembly level, let alone how to initiate such procedures sequentially among multiple selected components. Does anyone know or have handy some references or examples which would allow me to do such things? And to beat it to the punch: I am not able to upload the files for inspection.
