Dim oCurrentSheet As Sheet
' Iterate through the sheets
Dim oSheet As Sheet
FullFilename = ThisDoc.Path & "\drawings"& "\Panel_assy_LAVT.idw"
Dim oDrawDoc as DrawingDocument = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(Fullfilename)
oDrawDoc.Activate


For Each oSheet In ThisDoc.Document.Sheets

oCurrentSheet = ThisDoc.Document.ActiveSheet
oSheet.Activate
iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Auto_dim_arrangement")
iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Update_all_sheet")
iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Drawing_view_scale")
iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True

oSheet.Update
Next
iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Zoom_fit_drawing")
'return to original sheet
oCurrentSheet.Activate

MessageBox.Show("All Drawings Updated Successfully", "Panel Selection")

You need to revisit the logical flow of your programming. You had a lot of things out of place.

And your issue was grabbing a new variable instead of using a document that you have already saved.

Dim oCurrentSheet As Sheet
' Iterate through the sheets
Dim oSheet As Sheet
FullFilename = ThisDoc.Path & "\drawings"& "\Panel_assy_LAVT.idw"
Dim oDrawDoc as DrawingDocument = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(Fullfilename)
oDrawDoc.Activate

oCurrentSheet = oDrawDoc.ActiveSheet

For Each oSheet In oDrawDoc.Sheets
    oSheet.Activate
    iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Auto_dim_arrangement")
    iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Update_all_sheet")
    iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Drawing_view_scale")
    iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Zoom_fit_drawing")
    iLogicVb.UpdateWhenDone = True

    oSheet.Update
Next

'return to original sheet
oCurrentSheet.Activate

MessageBox.Show("All Drawings Updated Successfully", "Panel Selection")

If you would have compared the 2 blocks of code, you would see the code I posted already was a revised version.............................
