To run this sample have a sheet active that contains a parts list.
Public Sub PartListEdit()
' Set a reference to the drawing document.
' This assumes a drawing document is active.
Dim oDrawDoc As DrawingDocument
Set oDrawDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
' Set a reference to the first parts list on the active sheet.
' This assumes that a parts list is on the active sheet.
Dim oPartList As PartsList
Set oPartList = oDrawDoc.ActiveSheet.PartsLists.Item(1)
' Iterate through the contents of the parts list.
Dim i As Long
For i = 1 To oPartList.PartsListRows.Count
' Get the current row.
Dim oRow As PartsListRow
Set oRow = oPartList.PartsListRows.Item(i)
' Iterate through each column in the row.
Dim j As Long
For j = 1 To oPartList.PartsListColumns.Count
' Get the current cell.
Dim oCell As PartsListCell
Set oCell = oRow.Item(j)
' Check that the column isn't the quantity column.
If oPartList.PartsListColumns.Item(j).Title "QTY" Then
' Change the current value in the part list.
oCell.Value = i & "," & j
End If
Next
Next
' This changes a specific column by name.
Dim ItemNumber As Long
ItemNumber = oPartList.PartsListRows.Count
For i = 1 To oPartList.PartsListRows.Count
Set oCell = oPartList.PartsListRows.Item(i).Item("ITEM")
oCell.Value = ItemNumber
ItemNumber = ItemNumber - 1
Next
