CATIA Rename part\product with new UUID

[elmundo777]

Hello
I'm have a question:
How to change the name of the part / product with the help of macros/vba/vb.net, while changing the uuid?
The problem is that using the vb language I try to change the name of old files for later saving and get an error:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.
at INFITF.Documents.Item(Object& iIndex)
But when I create new file and try to rename it, i haven't this problem.

Use CATIA.Documents.NewFrom to create a copy of a document with new UUID.
