PCDLRN ActiveX DLL > PartProgram Object : SaveAs2 Method

String value containing the full pathway and file name to which to save.

Boolean value that determines whether or not to save the CAD as a reference to the original CAD file. This lets you reference your CAD model instead of copying a new one. This helps save disk space.

SaveAs2 Method

This method lets you save the measurement routine with a new name or in a new file location. It differs from the SaveAs method by letting you save the CAD file as a reference.

  • TRUE will save the CAD as a reference.
