Macro for Activate/Deactivate STP license (Sharable Products)

Hi everyone
I have searched the forum about this topic in the name and does anyone know how to make a macro where we can activate/deactivate STP license from Sharable Products?

It's not possible with visual basic. I'm still waiting for someone to prove me wrong, though.

Does anyone knows some other way, Doesn`t have to be Visual Basic?

Do you have to restart CATIA after selecting this license manually? If so, it cannot be automated.

AutoIt is an option for controlling such things.

The one thing we did, was to go into catia in administrative mode. Then you can go into tools options and lock out all the other shareable licenses that you don't have anyways. Then when you go into catia in normal mode your .stp license option will be near the top, not requiring you to scroll down to find and select it.
This is not as nice a macro could be, but it does help some.
