' Preconditions:

'          (1) Part document is open and has one or more solid bodies.

'          (2) Each solid body does not contain any circular edges.

'

' Postconditions: All vertices are highlighted.

Dim Body As SldWorks.Body2

Dim Edge As SldWorks.Edge

Dim Vertex As SldWorks.Vertex

Dim Bodyarr As Variant

Dim vbody As Variant
