I created a project @ http://solidworks.codeplex.com. The idea behind this is for you to spend less time developing the addin infrastructure and more time developing your addin functionality. Documentation All comments are welcome. SolidworksApi macros

Hi, There is possible to autostart a macro when I opening a specifiedpart or assembly? Can I build (or something other way) the macro into the part? The macro has a form, and I'd like the user could change the partbut with the form elements. If the user opens a part and if he have to run the macro manually,he could make changes in the part before he run the macro.

I now need to take all theassociated put them in an install package. I downloaded a fewfreebie installers, but they were not able to register the "GUID"to the registry.
