Move Assembly Components to New Folder Example (VB.NET)

'---------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Preconditions:
' 1. Verify that the specified assembly to open exists.
' 2. Open an Immediate window.
'
' Postconditions:
' 1. Opens the specified assembly document.
' 2. Selects the valve<1> and valve_guide<1> components.
' 3. Creates a folder named Folder1 in the FeatureManager design tree.
' 4. Moves the valve<1> and valve_guide<1> components to Folder1,
'    which you can verify by expanding Folder1.
' 5. Examine the Immediate window.
'
' NOTE: Because the assembly document is used by elsewhere,
' do not save any changes.
