Hi There,
I am trying to open VB Editor within Catia V5 usinf ATL+F11.
But the menu is de-activated in my case.Can anyone please let me know how to activate that option (Tools -> Macros -> Visual Basic Editor).

What release? We found a problem at R10 thru 12 where Uninstalling older versions of CATIA would un-register VB from CATIA. You need to either hack the registry (I don't rememeber the settings) or re-install CATIA.

Jim,
Do you thing instead of re-installing V5 that running cnext /regserver would work??

Nope. Didn't work. It's not the registry settings of CATIA that are messed up. It's the registry stettings of VB that went bad.

Come to think of it, in our case, the Admin could access the editor every time. We finally figured out that having the Admin Log onto the box, firing up the editor, and logging off of the box fixed it completely for everyone else using that workstation.
