Hello Guys!

Below is the code I`m using to get a list of solidbodies. I`m adding Structural Members only into my Combobox.

I need to show that body on the drawing when user chooses it from drop down list. I`m having problems referencing solidbodies from the array based on user choice.

Can someone point me into the right direction please?

Thanks,

Alex.

swModel.ClearSelection2 True

So here when user chooses the Item from drop down I have to reference it and show:

Private Sub ComboBox_Bodies_Change()

' Get the bodies from referenced model

Set swModel = swView.ReferencedDocument

arrBody = swModel.GetBodies2(swSolidBody, True)

If (nbrBodies = 1) Then

   swView.Bodies = (arrBody)

Else

   ' Set the body to view, HOW TO REFERENCE IT TO swBody.GetSelectionId AND MY COMBOBOX?

   Set Bodies(0) = arrBody(0)

   arrBodiesIn = Bodies

   swView.Bodies = (arrBodiesIn)

End If

swModel.ClearSelection2 True

End Sub

Any help is appreciated
