Catia Macro, Replace certain texts in a product

[vlg426]

Hi Guys

How do I write a macro that will replace every instance of certain text in a product tree to another text I want? Text can be in the file name, parameter name, parameter value....... I also need to perform this many times for difference text replacements.

I tried the function "Replace", but I failed...

.catvba

I know literally nothing about Macro, anything helps.

Hi,

Bellow an example how to use string manipulation in CATIA Script....to make it more general you will need to modify, I would add an input box for string to be replaced and another one for string used to replace....I will let you the pleasure to search a solution.

Sub CATMain()

Set MySel= Catia.activedocument.selection
MySel.Search "Name=*Geo*,all"    
For i=1 to Mysel.count
    Catia.statusbar=i & "/" & mysel.count
    MySel.item(i).value.name= Replace(Mysel.item(i).value.name,"Geo","AnotherGeo")
Next

End Sub

Fernando
