I need to delete all objects on layer 201 in the work-active drafting sheet. I have found a good journal to begin with (It delets everything on layer 201 in the whole part). The problem is, if I have multiple drafting sheets it deletes the objects on layer 201 everywhere. I have completely no idea how to solve this problem. I hope someone could help me with this. :D
Code:
Sub Main
        Dim theSession As Session = Session.GetSession()
        Dim workPart As Part = theSession.Parts.Work
        Dim displayPart As Part = theSession.Parts.Display
        If displayPart Is Nothing Then
            Exit Sub
        End If 
        Dim notifyOnDelete1 As Boolean
        notifyOnDelete1 = theSession.Preferences.Modeling.NotifyOnDelete
        theSession.UpdateManager.ClearErrorList()
        Dim nErrs1 As Integer
        nErrs1 = theSession.UpdateManager.AddToDeleteList(workPart.Layers.GetAllObjectsOnLayer(201))
End Sub

Try this. Below method will help you.

Conditions:
1. Objects must not be a hidden object.
2. Open the drawing sheet and run the journal

Code:
using System;
using NXOpen;

public class NXJournal
{
  public static void Main(string[] args)
  {
            Session theSession = NXOpen.Session.GetSession();
            Part workPart = theSession.Parts.Work;
            // Set the layer No.
            int layerNo = 201;

            NXOpen.Drawings.DrawingSheet currentSheet = workPart.DrawingSheets.CurrentDrawingSheet;

            NXOpen.Layer.State state = workPart.Layers.GetState(layerNo);

            if(state != NXOpen.Layer.State.Selectable)
            {
                workPart.Layers.SetState(layerNo, NXOpen.Layer.State.Selectable);
            }
            currentSheet.View.Fit();
            DisplayableObject[] sheetObjects = currentSheet.View.AskVisibleObjects();
            theSession.UpdateManager.ClearDeleteList();
             NXOpen.Session.UndoMarkId markId1;
            markId1 = theSession.SetUndoMark(NXOpen.Session.MarkVisibility.Visible, "Delete");

            foreach (DisplayableObject item in sheetObjects)
            {
                if (item.Layer == layerNo)
                {
                    theSession.UpdateManager.AddToDeleteList(item);
                }
            }

            theSession.UpdateManager.DoUpdate(markId1);

            workPart.Layers.SetState(layerNo, state);
    
  }
  public static int GetUnloadOption(string dummy) { return (int)Session.LibraryUnloadOption.Immediately; }
}
 
Thanks SelvarajC, you just made my day :D
Exactly what I was looking for. Works great
I however changed it to VB...

Heres the code if anyone finds this Post again.
Code:
Option Strict Off
Imports System
Imports NXOpen

Module NXJournal

Sub Main

		Dim theSession As Session = NXOpen.Session.GetSession()
		Dim workPart As Part = theSession.Parts.Work
		' Set the layer No.
		Dim layerNo As Integer = 201

		Dim currentSheet As NXOpen.Drawings.DrawingSheet = workPart.DrawingSheets.CurrentDrawingSheet

		Dim state As NXOpen.Layer.State = workPart.Layers.GetState(layerNo)

		If state <> NXOpen.Layer.State.Selectable Then
			workPart.Layers.SetState(layerNo, NXOpen.Layer.State.Selectable)
		End If
		currentSheet.View.Fit()
		Dim sheetObjects As DisplayableObject() = currentSheet.View.AskVisibleObjects()
		theSession.UpdateManager.ClearDeleteList()
		Dim markId1 As NXOpen.Session.UndoMarkId
		markId1 = theSession.SetUndoMark(NXOpen.Session.MarkVisibility.Visible, "Delete")

		For Each item As DisplayableObject In sheetObjects
			If item.Layer = layerNo Then
				theSession.UpdateManager.AddToDeleteList(item)
			End If
		Next

		theSession.UpdateManager.DoUpdate(markId1)

		workPart.Layers.SetState(layerNo, state)

	End Sub
	Public Function GetUnloadOption(dummy As String) As Integer
		Return CInt(Session.LibraryUnloadOption.Immediately)
	End Function

End Module
