I am very new to Solidworks Macros and haven't touched Excel macros at all. The original post referenced here touches on a few functions I would also find really useful. Can anyone help get me going in the right direction to get the functionality I am trying to obtain.
1.) Create a drawing with 3 standard views from the active part (Yes we place a BOM on our part drawings as well) / assembly file - This macro is taken care of
2.) An extension to the above Macro would be to also place a BOM on the drawing sheet. I tried recording a macro for this code but no useful code was generated.
3.) For each project we export the main GA BOM from Solidworks to excel and then do some formatting in Excel. It would be amazing if I could automatically format the data in Excel. (This macro or process could be separate and operate independently from the first two listed above.)
Thank you
