VBA Program for STAAD to CAD

Well hello all,
The image above is the UI of my application that extracts data from Staad.Pro and places it in AutoCAD environment. Currently it supports only the hot rolled I-sections of all the libraries in Staad environment.

Tools required are .... 1. Staad.Pro V8i or 2007 2. AutoCAD 2009

To use this following are the steps...

In staad ---->

1. Open staad file with model of the structure...
2. Go to Tools and then use cut section for cutting a required frame line that is to be drawn in AutoCAD
3.Select All the members that are there in the newly cut view.....make sure that nothing else is selected in other views....
4. Done now just minimize the Staad.Pro Environment

In AutoCAD---->
5. After minimizing the Staad.Pro just run the STAAD2CAD utility and select the plane in which the structural members were cut i.e. XZ plane or XY plane or ZY plane....
6. keep the scale to be 1000 if you want the natural scale
7. adjust text height, select various layers to be assigned to lines of members.....and thats it wiat till everything finishes.... the progress bar will show up the progress of drafting.....

thats it clos e the uitility and see the results...... :)....any suggestions are welcome..... :)

    I guess I am the only one who came here to share my very own experience. Guess what!? I am using my laptop for almost the past 2 years, but I had no idea of solving some basic issues. I do not know how to Download Cracked Application and Download crack pro software or any other basic crack version. I always really on others to solve my basic issues. But thankfully, I recently visited a website named Azharpc.org

Steel Drawing program to aid Drafting in VBA for AutoCAD

Xmas Greets to All!!! :), Hello there, Hmmm, its been a good time in office doing some designs and drafting as well for some good projects. The idea came to my mind for reducing drafting time and do it a bit easier way....i developed this tiny program that helps draw plan view and front view of some common I-Beam sections in AutoCAD and i don't need to keep looking at steel table every time for looking out for values of web thickness, flange width and all.....later searching internet i came to know that there exists a much advanced program on the same idea....but we need to pay for using it....and is simply much more powered than my program...but i learnt many things while doing this one....!!! So, here is how my program works....yuppp pal it really does :), 1. The VBA program is loaded automatically each time AutoCAD is started... 2. There is a simple GUI attached which enables user to choose the library of the steel sections.....viz Indian, British.....for now i have just loaded...
