I have to save a lot of dxf files from Solidworks to use for a CNC machine.
I'm looking for help to create a macro to save each configuration of the part as the top view of a part as a .dxf in the same location as the Solidworks file is saved.
I have found two macros which I kind of need to be combined together.
The first one saves all configurations separately as part files
The second one saves a part as a dxf of the top view.
It would be much appreciated if anyone could help me
first macro:
' Macro created by Jeff Parker CSWP/MCP 12/30/02
'
' Rev.1 = Added completion message box. Also verified SolidWorks 2005 compatabliity.
'
' Rev.2 = Fixed macro for x64 bits machines (changed folder browse codes). Also verified SolidWorks 2014 compatabliity.
' (BY: Deepak Gupta www.gupta9665.com 07/26/14)
' Folder Browse Codes: http://www.cpearson.com/excel/browsefolder.aspx
'
' Rev.3 = Fixed macro for Weldment part configuration names having <As Machined> and <As Welded>. Also verified SolidWorks 2016 compatabliity.

How to select spreadsheets one after another in Libre Office to perform some action in them?
In excel vba the following code worked, but it does not work in LibreOffice
Dim wb as Workbook
Dim ws as Worksheet
Set wb = ActiveWorkbook
For Each ws in wb.Worksheets
'Do something here
End if
Next
Could anyone help me with that?
First of all get the oSheets object (which is what is called Worksheets in Excel) of ThisComponent (which is what is called ActiveWorkbook in Excel)
Sub sheetProcessing()
Dim oSheets As Variant, oSheet As Variant
Dim i As Long
' By Sheet index
oSheets = ThisComponent.getSheets()
For i = 0 To oSheets.getCount() - 1
oSheet = oSheets.getByIndex(i)
Print oSheet.getName() & " - " & oSheet.getCellByPosition(0, 0).getString()
Next i
' Or by Element Names
Dim oElementNames As Variant
oElementNames = oSheets.getElementNames()
For i = LBound(oElementNames) To UBound(oElementNames)
oSheet = oSheets.getByName(oElementNames(i))
Print oSheet.getName() & " - " & oSheet.getCellByPosition(0, 0).getString()
Next i
' Or easiest
For Each oSheet In oSheets
Print oSheet.getName() & " - " & oSheet.getCellByPosition(0, 0).getString()
Next oSheet

I have this code:
Function cpyBIN(cpFilename As String)
Dim litefile() As Byte
Dim FN As Integer
Dim xlof As Long
FN = 1
Open cpFilename For Binary As FN
xlof = LOF(FN)
ReDim litefile(xlof)
Get FN, , litefile
Open cpFilename & "Backup" For
Binary As #2
Put #2, , litefile
Close #2
Close FN
End Function
and I use it in a Form like this :
Private Sub cmdBackup_Click()
Dim strComputer, objWMIService, colFiles, objfile
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colFiles = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from CIM_Datafile where Drive='D:' and path='\\contoh\\'")
For Each objfile In colFiles
cpyBIN (objfile.Name)
Next
End Sub
in the contoh folder there are 2 sample files:
namafile.exe
namafile♣♣♠.exe
when I run the code there is an error message like in the picture:
the error is in the line as shown in the picture:
how to make it supports unicode filename?
or
is there any replacement for this function??
There are several ways to make a copy of a file with Unicode file names. The first way is by using the Windows API:
Declare Function CopyFileW Lib "kernel32.dll" (ByVal lpExistingFileName As Long, _
ByVal lpNewFileName As Long, Optional ByVal bFailIfExists As Long) As Long
For Each objfile In colFiles
CopyFileW StrPtr(objfile.Name), StrPtr(objfile.Name & ".Backup")
Next
The second way is by using a FileSystemObject:
Dim fso As FileSystemObject
Set fso = New FileSystemObject
For Each objfile In colFiles
fso.CopyFile objfile.Name, objfile.Name & ".Backup", True
Next
The third way is by using an ADO Stream:
Dim s As ADODB.Stream
Set s = New ADODB.Stream
s.Open
s.Type = adTypeBinary
For Each objFile In colFiles
s.LoadFromFile objFile.Name
s.SaveToFile objFile.Name & ".Backup", adSaveCreateOverWrite
Next
s.Close
If you want to read data, I would use an ADO Stream:
Dim s As ADODB.Stream
Set s = New ADODB.Stream
s.Open
s.Type = adTypeBinary
For Each objFile In colFiles
s.LoadFromFile objFile.Name
data = s.Read()
'use the data somehow
Next
s.Close
I have to save a lot of dxf files from solidworks to use for a CNC machine.
I'm looking for help to create a macro to save the top view of a part as a .dxf in the same location as the solidworks file is saved.
I would like it to first save the solidworks part, and to replace any existing dxf if there's one with the same name already saved in that location.
I could find macros for drawing files and for sheet metal parts but have been unable to edit these to work for a normal part.
much appreciated if anyone could point me in the right direction.
Try this.
It will export the top view of the part to dxf

OK... found my problem but I'm not sure how to trap the problem. I may not need to as I'm hoping I won't run into this problem. Hoping isn't the best strategy though... :)
My PDF form has fields of type numeric. All my test data in my value cells were alpha-numeric. Once I changed my quantity and cost cells to numeric values in my excel doc the form was written correctly.
Perhaps I can test for the PDF form field type. If it is numeric I'll log the field name and present a msgbox at the end of the operation that displays fields that could not be filled.
I did need to correct my objJSO line to '=strFieldVal'
I'm fairly certain you want...
strField = Cells(r, 3).Value
strFieldVal = Cells(r, 4).Value
objJSO.GetField(strField).Value = strFieldVal
...instead of the three corresponding lines you have.
Below is my final code. It includes basic error handling (more like logging). One problem I did have in this; If I was writing an alpha numeric string to the PDF field and the PDF field was numeric AND there wasn't a default value in the PDF field the PDF would throw and error that my code couldn't catch. As long as there was a default value in the PDF numeric field the error handler worked as planned. Feel free to make any comments. I'm guessing this looks like kindergarten work (maybe 1st grade??)

I tried a different approach which actually gave me the list in the body of the email. But it does it for the whole table instead of just the one record I want. This is what the SQL looks like of the query.

Somewhere in your code, put a line that says
X = [Forms]![fmremail]![Text1]
Put a breakpoint in your code (hopefully you know how to do that?) on that line. When the code breaks, press F8 to step to the next line, and then type ?X in the Immediate Window. Or you can just hover your mouse over the line with the break point. The point is, you need to see what your code thinks [Forms]![fmremail]![Text1] is equal to. If it's null, you have a problem with your reference. In that case, you may need to add ".Value" or ".Text" to the end of it.
Another thing to check is your datatype for WOID. if it's text, you need to surround it with single quotes.
