(API) How to create code design groups?

[seifehab_bl4]

I'm looking to create a script in C# and want to be able to create code design groups and specify which bar IDs go into each group, so that I can do a code group design later. I found an excel macro script on this forum that can edit existing code groups, but I want to be able to create new ones, and would prefer if it was in C# if possible, please. I tried searching through the documentation but couldn't find anything about code groups. 

@Rafal.Gaweda would appreciate any help.

Hi @Rafal.Gaweda 

Thank you for sharing this. I looked through the code there and identified the function I've attached as an image. From looking at the RobotOM assembly file, I was able to convert it to C# like in the other attached image. I'm not getting any errors, but the new group doesn't show up in the robot model. Would you happen to know why please? I have no experience writing VBA and am unfamiliar with it.

Managed to figure it out in the end. Attached the finished code for reference. Forgot to initialise codeGroupNum in the screenshot I sent.
