Remove Textures from Assembly Components Example (VBA)

This example shows how to remove all textures from all components in an assembly.

'-------------------------------------------------
' Preconditions:
' 1. Open an assembly with one or more components
'    with textures applied to them at the component (part)
'    level.
' 2. Open the Immediate window.
'
' Postconditions:
' 1. Removes all textures applied to all components.
' 2. Examine the Immediate window.
' 3. Click the graphics area and examine the assembly.
'--------------------------------------------------
