End Sub

Remarks

This method considers only models opened through the SOLIDWORKS user interface. This method does not consider models successfully opened through the API, unless the API opens an assembly. In that case, each assembly component is opened by SOLIDWORKS, and this method determines which of those assembly's components was successfully opened last.
