Scripting Help for auto Save-as

Trying to get going on some scripting and automation. Very new to this so any and all help most appreciated. The following code gives this error :

---------------------------
PC-DMIS Basic Scripting Engine
---------------------------
Error on line: 9 - OLE Automation object does not have a default value
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Can someone help me get this simple script running?

Sub Main ()
Dim App As Object
Dim Part As Object
Set App = CreateObject ("PCDLRN.Application")
Set Part = App.ActivePartProgram
Dim Serial As Object
Set Serial = Part.GetVariableValue("V1")
Dim NewName$
NewName = Part.Path & Part.PartName & "_" & Serial & ".PRG"
retval = Part.SaveAs(NewName)
' Cleanup
Set Part = Nothing
Set App = Nothing
End Sub


I believe this code was originally posted in a different (and probably much better) form by VPT.se. I'm trying to learn how to do this sort of thing by modifying it.

Thanks for any help.

  • #2 it is a known bug that the tracefields that can populate it during program execution always lag one execution behind because the header is written before they run.


    I use a script that refreshes the report at the end of the program. This allows the header to be updated with my tracefield values from the current execution.
