Hi,
I would like to be able to build a drawing in ZWCAD from Excel VBA. That would include the following steps:
1. Open ZWCAD if it is not already open
2. draw a line, polyline
3. draw solids (cube, sphere etc.)
4. save the drawing
5. export the content as SAT
6. close the application
Any suggestions, examples?
Thank you

You neeed use COM object
Please look at this code fragment
Sub open_dwg()
Dim ZwCAD As ZwcadApplication
Dim frame As ZwcadDocument
Dim frameMSpace As ZwcadModelSpace
'create ZWCad Application
Set ZwCAD = CreateObject("ZwCAD.Application")
'open dwg-document
Set frame = ZwcadApplication.Documents.Open("'lib'frame.dwg")
'set model variable
Set frameMSpace = frame.ModelSpace;
'............
'
'insert here your function and code for adding object
'look at help for ModelSpace and adding objects
'
'............
End Sub
