Hello
I ask my question again.
Do you have a book to recommend for learning in VBA and Solidworks API.
I am advised to use the language VB.NET.
Thank you for your advice.
Kind regards.
Julian

I'm not an expert in the field, but I already recommend this which is the official Solidworks API help. (in English of course...)
Very practical;)

I want it!!!! :p
Hello
Most of the paper resources are in English, but I found a one-hour video in French for the introduction to SolidWorks APIs that I put as a tutorial on Lynkoa:
http://www.lynkoa.com/tutos/3d/solidworks-initiation-aux-api#
This can already be a good start!
Then, practice makes perfect! For example, you should try to create a macro to save a file in PDF and DWG, and then if there is a particular problem, come and ask the question here!
An interesting article in English for beginners (by the way, the site is interesting with a lot of resources, some of which are free):
http://www.cadsharp.com/blog/7-mistakes-new-solidworks-api-programmers-make/
Where they recommend VBA rather than VB if you don't want to become a SolidWorks API developer.
Good luck!

Hello to the forum.
Bart, Tomalam, PL, thank you;
PL offers VBA. I'm going to see VBA for dummies.
Very good the cadsharp site.
Too bad there is nothing on SW in French (book).
Have a nice day

Since there is no good foundation for SolidWorks, and VAB and VN.net are very close, you can also start with this tutorial:
http://fr.openclassrooms.com/informatique/cours/apprenez-a-programmer-en-vb-net
Then deepen the SolidWorks APIs by what I have indicated in the other messages.
