Retrieving Existing BOM Configuration

Hi all,

I use this code to find the BOM name.
But I need its configuration. Keep in mind that it is a top level only BOM

<p style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Verdana, 'Verdana Ref', Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif; color: #333333;">Dim swApp As SldWorks.SldWorks<br>Private Const strApp As String = "Link2BOM v1.00"</p><p style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Verdana, 'Verdana Ref', Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif; color: #333333;">Public Sub subMain()<br>    Dim iCnt, iTotal As Integer<br>    Dim retVal As Variant<br>    Dim sBOMname As String<br>    Dim vSheetNames As Variant<br>    <br>    Dim swView As SldWorks.View<br>    Dim swSheetView As SldWorks.View<br>    Dim swModel As SldWorks.ModelDoc2<br>    Dim swDrawing As SldWorks.DrawingDoc<br>    Dim swFeat As SldWorks.Feature<br>    Dim swBOM As SldWorks.Feature<br>    <br>    Set swApp = Application.SldWorks<br>    Set swModel = swApp.ActiveDoc<br>    Set swDrawing = swModel<br>    Set swFeat = swModel.FirstFeature<br>    <br>    'Get BOM name<br>    Do While Not swFeat Is Nothing<br>        If "BomFeat" = swFeat.GetTypeName Then<br>            Set swBomFeat = swFeat.GetSpecificFeature2<br>            Set swBOM = swBomFeat.GetFeature<br>            sBOMname = swBOM.Name<br>            Exit Do<br>        End If<br>        Set swFeat = swFeat.GetNextFeature<br>    Loop<br>    <br>    vSheetNames = swDrawing.GetSheetNames<br>    iTotal = UBound(vSheetNames) + 1<br>    iCnt = 0</p><p style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Verdana, 'Verdana Ref', Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif; color: #333333;">    Do While iCnt < iTotal<br>        'Set view linked to BOM<br>        retVal = swDrawing.ActivateSheet(vSheetNames(iCnt))<br>        Set swSheetView = swDrawing.GetFirstView<br>        Set swView = swSheetView.GetNextView<br>        Do While Not swView Is Nothing<br>            retVal = swView.SetKeepLinkedToBOM(True, sBOMname)<br>            Set swView = swView.GetNextView<br>        Loop<br>        iCnt = iCnt + 1<br>    Loop</p><p style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Verdana, 'Verdana Ref', Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif; color: #333333;">    retVal = swDrawing.ActivateSheet(vSheetNames(0))<br>    <br>    swApp.SendMsgToUser2 "       Linking is complete...       ", swMbInformation, swMbOk</p><p style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Verdana, 'Verdana Ref', Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif; color: #333333;">    Set swApp = Nothing<br>    Set swModel = Nothing<br>    Set swDrawing = Nothing<br>    Set swFeat = Nothing<br>    Set swBomFeat = Nothing<br>    Set swBOM = Nothing<br>    Set swSheetView = Nothing<br>    Set swView = Nothing<br>    <br>    End<br>End Sub</p>

Whatever I try

Dim sBOMconfig As Variant

Dim swBomFeat As SldWorks.BomFeature

Dim swFeat As SldWorks.Feature

Set swFeat = swModel.FirstFeature

Set swBomFeat = swFeat.BomFeature (or Set swBomFeat = swFeat.GetSpecificFeature2)

sBOMconfig = swBomFeat.GetConfigurations(True, Visible)

I cannot seem to get the configuration being used.

Further I would also like to see it only look for the configuration of the visible BOM. All other BOM's in the sheet that are hidden should be ignored.
