xCAD.NET and Visual Studio

Unread post by Check Master »

Hello all,
I am having major problems creating an Addin in SW2022 SP5.0.
For example, I cannot save a VB.NET macro under the vbproj extension.
This has already been brought to the attention of our VAR, but so far no solution.
The SW Help is clear when it comes to not having this extension available specifically.
Even getting hold of the right Visual Studio is quite a challenge.

I also tried to get xCAD.NET to work, but it didn't really work either.
Which Visual Studio is needed?

Regards!

I'm not sure about VB.NET, but when I develop add-ins I use c# in the latest release of Visual Studio. I have no issues with VS2022 and add-in development with c#. I imagine that the same can be done with VB.NET.

As for macros saving in the .vbproj extension, I believe that this help page covers why this may be missing.
