Hello
I would like help to find and delete a note (on several sheets) that starts with "Burn*"
I can find the note, but not select and delete it for now, there is probably something very simple that I don't understand:
'--------------------------------------------
' Preconditions: Drawing document is open and at least
'                one view has some notes.
'
' Postconditions: None
'
' NOTE: IDrawingDoc::GetViews returns both sheets and views.

            For i = 0 To noteCount - 1

              With a little research, here's an almost functional code:

                    Set swView = swDraw.GetFirstView ' This is the drawing template
                    Set swNote = swView.GetFirstNote
                
                    swModel.ClearSelection2 (True)

                        Debug.Print "Note:" & swNote.GetText
                        If swNote.GetText Like "Graver le N°*" Then
                            Set swAnn = swNote.GetAnnotation
                            bRet = swAnn.Select2(True, 0)
                            Debug.Print "  " & swNote.GetName
                            Debug.Print "    " & swNote.GetText
                            swModel.EditDelete
                        End If
                        Set swNote = swNote.GetNext
                    Loop
                    swModel.ClearSelection2 (True)
                    swDraw.ActivateSheet (swSheet.GetName)
    Next i

I just have one problem because the annotation is duplicate in each sheet and it only deletes the 1st one if someone understands why.
Currently I run the macro 2 times to clean each MEP (several hundred sheets...)
             
            
              
              
              
            
            
                
                
              
           
          
            
            
              Hello
I was testing the same track, so the fact that it doesn't delete the second one is the fact that once the note is deleted, swNote is empty.
Below is the corrected code with the addition of a boolean to handle the continuation of the grade analysis.
Sub SupressNote()
Dim swApp                       As SldWorks.SldWorks
Dim swModel                     As SldWorks.ModelDoc2
Dim swDraw                      As SldWorks.DrawingDoc
Dim swView                      As SldWorks.View
Dim swNote                      As SldWorks.Note

Dim bRet                        As Boolean
Dim mySheet                     As SldWorks.Sheet
Dim swSheet                     As SldWorks.Sheet
Dim vSheetNames                 As Variant
Dim bFind                       As Boolean
Dim i As Integer
    Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
    Set swModel = swApp.ActiveDoc
    Set swDraw = swModel
    
    Set swSheet = swDraw.GetCurrentSheet
    vSheetNames = swDraw.GetSheetNames
    
    
    For i = 0 To UBound(vSheetNames)
    Debug.Print vSheetNames(i)
    swDraw.ActivateSheet vSheetNames(i)
        
        
                    
                    Set swView = swDraw.GetFirstView ' This is the drawing template
                    Do While Not swView Is Nothing
                        Set swNote = swView.GetFirstNote
                
                        swModel.ClearSelection2 (True)
                
                        Debug.Print "File = " & swModel.GetPathName
                
                        Do While Not swNote Is Nothing
                            bFind = False
                            Debug.Print "Note:" & swNote.GetText
                            If swNote.GetText Like "*Chanfrein*" Then '"Graver le N°*" Then
                                bFind = True
                                Set swAnn = swNote.GetAnnotation
                                bRet = swAnn.Select2(True, 0)
                                Set swNote = swNote.GetNext
                                
                                Debug.Print "  " & swNote.GetName
                                Debug.Print "    " & swNote.GetText
                                swModel.EditDelete
                                
                            End If
                        If Not bFind Then Set swNote = swNote.GetNext
                        Loop
                    Set swView = swView.GetNextView
                    Loop
                    swModel.ClearSelection2 (True)
                    swDraw.ActivateSheet (swSheet.GetName)
    Next i
    'Supression du calques Notes rouges
     Dim lyrMgr As LayerMgr
     Set lyrMgr = swDraw.GetLayerManager
    bRet = lyrMgr.DeleteLayer("NotesRouge")
    
End Sub
 
Edit: If the notes are not systematically in the background, you should also think about looping on the views.

              The notes (in this case are in the background)
The proposed solution is perfectly functional. Thank you
