How to get Dim Variables form an enitity w/VBA?

I am interested in making two VBA programs.

 

 

AutoCAD 2004-09

 

Is it possable to make a VBA program to get entity variables from

a picked entity and display entity variables in a textbox in VBA. It would

be something simular to the pull down menu properies box but it would

have VBA access for a beginner programmer.

 

The user would pick a button and the VBA form would temporary

hide allow a user pick an entity. The VBA program will redisplay the form

with the entity variable in a text box.

 

This would complete program #1. for reference.

For program #2. I am interested in Dim variables.

I would like to modify copy program 1 and modify it into

program 1.

 

In this case I am interested in Dim Variables such as dim

text height. I would like also like to display dim text height, Arrow

head size, dim exo, exe variables, and offset variable in

a text boxes on a form. Maybe dim text style would be another

good variable for reset.

 

I would eventually want a second button to reset default

autocad reset default dim variables.

This would allow a user to pick a Dim and reset autocad

dim default values without manually chaning them in the

dim style properties box.

 

A program like this would be a good starter program for other

entity modifications in Autocad.

 

I was looking at ThisDrawing.Utility.GetEntity to make something

like this but I have not got anywere with it.

 

Can anyone help?

 

Thank you,
