SOLIDWORKS API for the Total Beginner - 6/6 Saving Files and Conclusion

SOLIDWORKS API for the Total Beginner
This video features guest contributor Keith Rice from CADSharp.com. This 6-part video tutorial series takes users from the most basic Macro Recorder that anyone can use to record clicks and actions, through building a custom macro from scratch. He introduces three pillars or skills that are required to create and operate these macros at a high level: Programming using VBA, Using API Help, Understanding the SOLIDWORKS API Object Model. If you need help with an API project for your SOLIDWORKS or PDM environment, contact MLC CAD Systems today to see what options are best for you.

After watching this video and with a free evening I was able to perform some operations that will save some hours of time after I share it with my coworkers. Amazing videos and teacher

Hello, I wanted to ask you, can you make a macro like the one you created first, (one that creates a new part, and a cylinder for example), be an executable file, that is, when executing that file, (double click as any program) open solidworks and run that macro?
PS: Excuse my English, I'm using google translator

[@MLCCADSystems]

Yes, it should be possible to use a program to start another program and connect to its session. The executable file could not contain the SOLIDWORKS software, but as long as it was installed locally I believe this is possible. We don't have any videos that cover anything like that.

Thanks

Big thanks for the series! helped me a lot! no good books, Dessult documentation is lame!

We have other API project playlists to check out, but once you get the basic workflow down you can find an example similar to what you want to do and figure it out. Also check out CADSharp.com for more great information. Good luck!
