SolidWorks VBA Macro to remove flag of Toolbox Components

 We all work with SolidWorks toolbox components .But we wonder if we could remove the flag at sometime. I have created a Macro file which would help you to remove the flag of Toolbox Components in assembly.
Reach me for any clarification.




Procedure:
1.This helps to save the Toolbox components in Active Assembly to a location as per user input and to remove the Toolbox Flag.
2. Rebuild and save the Assembly for seeing the changes .

Dim swApp As SldWorks.SldWorks
Dim swmodel As SldWorks.ModelDoc2
Dim swassem As SldWorks.AssemblyDoc
Dim vcomp As Variant
Dim swcomp As SldWorks.Component2
Dim swpart As SldWorks.ModelDoc2
Dim a As Integer
Dim bool As Boolean
Dim err As Long
Dim war As Long
Dim asname As String
Dim pname As String
Dim floc As String
Sub main()
Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
Set swmodel = swApp.ActiveDoc
Set swassem = swmodel
floc = InputBox("enter the location")
asname = swmodel.GetTitle
vcomp = swassem.GetComponents(True)
For i = 0 To UBound(vcomp)
Set swcomp = vcomp(i)
Set swpart = swcomp.GetModelDoc2
If swpart Is Nothing Then
Else
'MsgBox swpart.GetTitle
pname = swpart.GetTitle
a = swpart.Extension.ToolboxPartType
If a = 1 Then
'MsgBox ("toolbox component")
swApp.ActivateDoc3 pname, False, 1, err
bool = swpart.Extension.SaveAs(floc & "\" & swpart.GetTitle & i & ".sldprt", 0, 1, Nothing, err, war)
swpart.Extension.ToolboxPartType = 0
'MsgBox (swpart.Extension.ToolboxPartType)
bool = swpart.Save3(1, err, war)
'MsgBox bool
swApp.ActivateDoc3 asname, True, 1, err
ElseIf a = 2 Then
'MsgBox ("toolbox component")
swApp.ActivateDoc3 pname, False, 1, err
bool = swpart.Extension.SaveAs(floc & "\" & swpart.GetTitle & i & ".sldprt", 0, 1, Nothing, err, war)
swpart.Extension.ToolboxPartType = 0
'MsgBox (swpart.Extension.ToolboxPartType)
bool = swpart.Save3(1, err, war)
'MsgBox bool
swApp.ActivateDoc3 asname, True, 1, err
End If
End If
Next
swmodel.ForceRebuild3 False
bool = swmodel.Save3(1, err, war)
swmodel.ForceRebuild3 False
End Sub
