record macro
please see the code below
i used record macro to create this macro
when i run it, i got a runtime error at the highlight line
i think when i used record macro, the sketch and dimenion are d1 and sketch7; however, when i run this macro with diff. part, the names of dimension and sketch are diff., so how to control the names here?
thx, chris

chris,
you are right. the dimension name is changing. when you add the dimension two lines before you set the value, it is setting the annotation object to this newly created displaydimension object.
you can add a
dim dimension as object
set dimension = annotation.getdimension2
now you can use one of three of the dimension object's methods. setsystemvalue3, setuservaluein2, or setvalue3 to change the value.

thx, wayne
jus wondering how you'd do with the sketch name?

if you know the dimension name, just replace d1@sketch7 with it. if you do not know the name, then you would still have to get the dimension object like i mentioned in the previous reply. but you could use "dimension.name" to get the dimension name.
