Begginer issues ActiveUIdocument and StringBuilder Errors

[Anonymous]

Michael here

I have just started using the Macro API system, I have recently obtained a code example from one of my colleague and i am trying to get it to work.

I keep getting the ActiveUIDocument error and the StringBuilder Error. please see below screen grab of the code.

Cheers Michael

StringBuilder is in System.Text, you need to be "using" that.  Assuming macros work the same way as C# code, if I can see the tiny text right, you're trying to get ActiveUIDocument from "this"... you want to get it from the Application passed in via the commandData parameter to Execute, not your class.  Have a look at some of the samples in the sdk.
