Sweep with selected edge

[NachoShaw]

Hi

Having a little issue with a Sweep function. Im selecting an edge in the part and need to use that edge as the path but i get a Type Mismatch. I tried to set the edge as a path (which is what the  sweep command is looking for) but then i get a 'Failed to createPath' error....

By selecting an edge or having an edge selected, how would i use the edge as the path or convert it to a path for the sweep function?

Dim oEdge As Edge: Set oEdge = oApp.CommandManager.Pick(kPartEdgeFilter, "pick edge")
oEdgeSet.AddItem oEdge

Dim oPath As Path
Set oPath = oCompDef.Features.CreatePath(oEdge)

Dim oProfile As Profile
Set oProfile = oSketch.Profiles.AddForSolid

Dim spDef As SweepDefinition
Set spDef = oCompDef.Features.SweepFeatures.CreateSweepDefinition(kPathSweepType, oProfile, oPath, kCutOperation)

Dim sp As SweepFeature
Set sp = oCompDef.Features.SweepFeatures.Add(spDef)

do i need to convert the selected edge to something else? if so, what?

do i need to create a line in place of the edge? if so, how because i cant access the edge end points?

Thanks
