Change Wrap Feature Face Example (VBA)

This example shows how to insert a wrap feature and change the face on which to apply a wrap feature.

'------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Preconditions: Verify that the part to open exists.
'
' Postconditions:
' 1. Opens the part document.
' 2. Sketches a rectangle on the top plane.
' 3. Selects the sketch of the rectangle and the
'    face where to scribe the sketch as a wrap feature.
' 4. Inserts the wrap feature.
' 5. Rotates the part about its center.
' 6. Selects another face on the part.
' 7. Edits the wrap feature and wraps the rectangular
'    sketch on the second face.
'
' NOTE: Because the part document is used elsewhere, do not save changes.
