i am working on an assembly. I want to switch to part workbench by using VBA.
Same things we can do by double clicking on the Part entities in an Assembly.
How can i do it by using VBA?

From the assembly level, you can find the object of the part you want to work with and create/modify/delete object with no problem.
Why do you need to activate a part level workbench?

If you had an assembly loaded and you wanted to do something like StartCommand "Publications", you would need to be active on a part or the publications would be made at the assembly level.

To place a part in edit mode, add the part to the selection then change the workbench to Part Design or GSD.

CATIA.StartWorkbench("PrtCfg")
