Hello Sorry to come back to this subject I was absent 2 months and the topic I had opened is not solved.
I have a problem with a macro slurry.
When I use it I have a file named XXXXXD05 and when I copy it via my macro it turns into xxxxxd05 .
it's like if I had a file named "OrAngE" and I saved it under the name "orange", but I can't find how to tell it to keep the original format.
I tried to put a compare text but it doesn't change anything
Here's a bit of my macro.

For i = 0 To (namesCount - 1)
If InStr(pgFileNames(i), "34980") <> 0 Then
pgFileNames(i) = Replace(pgFileNames(i), "34980", "34950")
Else
pgFileNames(i) = ""
End If
Next i
status = swPackAndGo.SetDocumentSaveToNames(pgFileNames)
' Set folder where to save the files
myPath = " chemin du dossier "
status = swPackAndGo.SetSaveToName(True, myPath)
' Flatten the Pack and Go folder structure; save all files to the root directory
swPackAndGo.FlattenToSingleFolder = True
' Pack and Go
statuses = swModelDocExt.SavePackAndGo(swPackAndGo)
End sub
after a few tests I have the impression that this will be difficult to solve via the functions from "GetPackAndGo", the "GetDocumentNames" function seems to return names that are systematically lowercase...
FYI, a takeaway composition has always changed the case of the filenames and this since the 2004 version of memory where it already changed the extension from SLDPRT to sldprt. All this from memory but I know that we were bothered at the time with a software from the MYCAD suite which unlike windows made the difference between these 2 extension breaks.
Okay thank you for the information it's always useful on my side currently we have "launch copied from project" which keeps the case of the parts by replacing the first 5 characters with 5 others, it may interest me that's why I guess I can play with the "Replace" function but I don't know not how.
that's why I'm wondering if GetDocumentSaveToNames doesn't take into account lowercase and uppercase.
Or if it's when I use the replace function that everything goes lowercase.
By tracing what happens at each step we realize that the problem occurs as soon as the "GetDocumentNames" function is called, which is upstream of the "Replace" function which has nothing to do with the problem.

I may have found a solution that if I add a code of this type at the end of my macro to rename everything in capital letters, do you think that my references will follow in sw??
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
ReDim pgGetFileNames(namesCount - 1)
ReDim pgDocumentStatus(namesCount - 1)
status = swPackAndGo.GetDocumentSaveToNames(pgGetFileNames, pgDocumentStatus)
' Pack and Go
statuses = swModelExt.SavePackAndGo(swPackAndGo)
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''Add the following lines after Pack and go command
For i = 0 To (namesCount - 1) '''''''''''''change lowecase to uppercase
Name pgGetFileNames(i) As UCase(pgGetFileNames(i)) ' Rename file.
If (Right(UCase(pgGetFileNames(i)), 7) = ".SLDPRT") Then
DRAW = Replace(UCase(pgGetFileNames(i)), "SLDPRT", "SLDDRW")
If Dir(DRAW) <> "" Then Name DRAW As UCase(DRAW)
End If
Next i
This doesn't solve the problem of mixing lowercase and uppercase as in your example with the word "OrAngE", you'll have everything in uppercase instead of everything in lowercase.
Yes unfortunately I can't find any solution so I added a piece of code that goes through windows to rename my parts in capital I only have one problem is that my parts are in capital letters.
but when I open Solidworks they are lowercase
It's not the breakage I wanted to have but I have no choice in my opinion ... :/
I don't see why you go through Windows to rename your parts in capital letters, you just have to put:
For i = 0 To (namesCount - 1)
pgFileNames(i) = Replace(pgFileNames(i), pgFileNames(i), UCase(pgFileNames(i)))
Next i
Before your lines:
myPath = " chemin du dossier "
status = swPackAndGo.SetSaveToName(True, myPath)
And then when you open your assembly from the PackAnGo, check that your initial assembly is closed, otherwise Solidworks may refer to the old assembly rather than the new one because it is not case sensitive.
