I want to get 2 parameters in "bill of material". first "Length" in structure workbench, second is "quantity". I try to find these 2 parameters in
CATIA.Documents.Item(Document).Product.ReferenceProduct
But can't. I have an idea. I try find a way to get "Bill of material" into an array. I found a code write Bill of material to excel file.
On Error Resume Next
Dim productDocument1 As productDocument
Set productDocument1 = CATIA.ActiveDocument
Dim product1 As Product
Set product1 = productDocument1.Product
Dim assemblyConvertor1 As AssemblyConvertor
Set assemblyConvertor1 = product1.GetItem("BillOfMaterial")
assemblyConvertor1.[Print] "XLS", "D:\BOM.xls", product1
How to get "Bill of material" data into an array? Thanks

The length parameter of elements of the structure design apparently only available trough the StrComputeServices Example:
Sub CATMain()
Dim oRootProduct as Product
Dim oInstanceProduct as Product
Dim oStrWB as Workbench
Dim oStrServices As StrComputeServices
Set oRootProduct = CATIA.ActiveDocument.Product
Set oInstanceProduct = oRootProduct.Products.Item(1)
Set oStrWB = CATIA.ActiveDocument.GetWorkbench("StrWorkbench")
Set oStrServices = oStrWB.StrComputeServices
MsgBox CStr(oStrServices.GetLength(oInstanceProduct))
End Sub

i developped this code below if it can help you : https://www.catiavb.net/sourceCodeCATIA.php#getbom You can find the function to get 'MaLangue' in same website (to return language used by CATIA if necessary). Or you can delete every line who refers to "MaLangue". To launch the sub you can write GetBOM(Catia.ActiveDocument.Product) if you want to get the Bom of the root product. Or you can launch for for an other product from the root.
You can then read lines of the txt file (thanks to a stream reader) and split by every vbTab to get your array. The advantage is that you will have a bill of materials that either lists all the parts, or only lists the first level as required by certain customer standards
