I am a beginner with VB.net and Solid Works and I need anexampleof opening a document and printing it to the defaultprinter.
I can call SW and have it open but the document does not openjustthe app. Here is what I have so far:
Dim swApp As SldWorks.SldWorks
foundFile = "C:\In\6.slddrw"
swApp = New SldWorks.SldWorks
swApp.OpenDoc(foundFile, 0)
swApp.Visible = True
I have a stop here to look at the application for the file:
swApp.CloseDoc(foundFile)
I have tried OpenDoc6 but I do not understand what theargumentswhere all about. Do I need to dim them and set the value.
Any help would be wonderful.
Thanks,
Jim
