VBA or Visual Basic for Application macros is the easiest way to start with programming in SOLIDWORKS. To use VBA, you must know working knowledge of SOLIDWORKS & hands-on experience on VB programming language.
With the help of VBA, we can perform any simple action to any complex action. But there are certain limitations to VBA. For example, I found that for large project Add-ins are created using VB.net or C# programming language. It is not that with VBA you cannot do such kind of work. You can do almost any type of work you want in SOLIDWORKS, but I found that other languages are more useful in creating very large and complex projects. They are especially useful in organizing the project. For example, in VB.net & C#, we can create “Folders” for project arrangement.
But it not necessary that we should ignore VBA and jump to these advance languages. Remember every complex project starts with a few simple procedures. Likewise, after completing some simple macros you can combine more than one macro to form a single macro and make it more complex over the period of time.
In this article, I have listed all the article in of SOLIDWORKS Tutorials. If you are a beginner just follow the listed article by sequence if you already have a knowledge of VBA, then look for the related topic you are looking for.
