SolidWorks API Series 1: Programming & Automation

The first in the series of books on programming of the SolidWorks CAD software is here. Shipping to anywhere in the world. If you are new to programming or a seasoned developer this book suits all levels. Covering VBA, C# and VB.Net this is the only book you will need to know everything you need about the SolidWorks API.
SolidWorks API Series 1: Advanced Product Development

Second in a series of highly popular books focusing intensively on the SolidWorks API programming toolset. Firstly this book is written with the presumption that the reader has adequate knowledge of SolidWorks API programming (either from experience or from reading my previous book) and so complete beginners may struggle as basic steps are overlooked. This book focuses a lot more on hardcore API programming techniques and methods focused around the add-in and PMP area of SolidWorks. Purely .Net (no VBA this time folks). As well as covering the API, we go ten steps further and move on to something I have personally never found in any programming book on the market, presumably because those who have the knowledge do not wish to share it; actual real-world product development step-by-step - from concept to design and testing, onto licensing, installation, sales, distribution and marketing! After all, is that not where this journey is meant to lead? The topics covered will include SolidWorks Add-ins, in-process coding vs. Standalone, planning and production, the development of a fully-functioning complex event and notification hooked add-in application, creating your very own installer software that installs your add-in and registers it with COM, then creates desktop/start menu shortcuts and much more. You will even be taught on using Photoshop CS4 to create a logo and packaging for your product ready for sale! This book is truly a full product lifecycle journey and beginners right through to industry pro’s will learn a thing or two from at least one chapter.
Automating SOLIDWORKS 2025 Using Macros

• Learn how to save time by automating repetitive work • Teaches you how to develop macros for SOLIDWORKS, the SOLIDWORKS Document Manager and SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional • Programming experience is not required • Covers many of the major API functions through practical use cases • Focuses on the Visual Studio Tools for Applications macro interface Engineers working with SOLIDWORKS are often faced with tedious, repetitive work that can consume a lot of time, but it doesn’t have to be this way. One of the most exciting aspects of SOLIDWORKS is its robust programming interface or API. The SOLIDWORKS API allows you to write code that can perform almost any series of actions for you. SOLIDWORKS was built from the ground up to automate, and in this book, you will learn how to take advantage of these powerful tools to speed up your work. Automating SOLIDWORKS 2025 Using Macros is designed as a tutorial to help beginner to intermediate programmers develop macros for SOLIDWORKS. Experience with programming isn’t required. The book starts with a chapter on the fundamentals of Visual Basic.NET and the SOLIDWORKS API to make the learning process easier for beginners. The rest of the book introduces you to developing macros using the SOLIDWORKS API. The book concludes with a chapter dedicated to some of the author’s favorite source code for you to use as the basis for typical automation procedures. The focus of this book is primarily on the Visual Studio Tools for Applications (VSTA) macro interface. It covers many of the major API functions through practical use cases. It will teach you the fundamentals of Visual Basic.NET as well as SOLIDWORKS, SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional, SOLIDWORKS Document Manager and Excel API functions. Author Mike Spens has been professionally developing macros for SOLIDWORKS for more than a decade. He has helped numerous companies develop their own programs and streamline their workflows. If you want to learn how to develop your own macros for SOLIDWORKS, following best practices and using well written code, then this is the perfect book for you. What you'll learn • Record macros • Control Custom Properties • Create parts and features • Build assemblies • Batch create drawings • Extract information from PDM • Create add-ins from macros • Create many other time saving utilities
