Connection with robot structural through API

I create addin in Autocad. I want to connect with Robot Application, which is currently opened and have some bars selected. How to create connection with already opened application?

hi @dawid.deptula 

Using Excel, after adding the library as a reference in the VBA editor the code starts like this

Dim RobApp As IRobotApplication
Set RobApp = New RobotApplication

to see example of addins

Unfortunatelly, when I run Robot File, next autocad with adding and try your solution, my program doesn't see active Robot software. I check Project.Visible parameter and it is 0 value.
