Automatically Export IGES?

I know that there must be a way to automatically export IGES files at the end of the program. However, I am not well versed enough in VB (not at all would be a better description) in order to write a script to do this. Can anyone help?

  • I've never done it, but the function below exports CAD or part data from the part program to the indicated file. The export format is determine by the file name extension of filename.

    Return Value=expression.Export (File Name)

    Return Value: This method returns a boolean value. Boolean returns true if the function suceeds, false if it fails. (I don't know what boolean is)

    expression: Req'd expression that evaluates to a PartProgram object.

    File Name: Req'd string that denotes the file name to which to export.
