What this macro does

Reads a CSV file containing file paths, configuration names and property values, then updates SOLIDWORKS custom properties.

Updated custom properties

Does not export files; writes custom properties to the listed documents.

Test on copied SOLIDWORKS files first.
Download and import BatchCustomPropertyUpdateFromCsv.bas into a SOLIDWORKS VBA macro project.
Open the required document type: Part, Assembly, Drawing.
Run main from the macro editor or assign it to a toolbar button.
Review all generated files before using them for production release.

Always test on copied files first.
CSV parsing supports quoted fields but should be kept simple for production use.

When macros become a workflow

Use this macro for a focused task. Use Solidise when you need repeatable export, BOM review, previews or where-used context across many files.
