Example
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim objApp As SolidEdgeFramework.Application
    Dim objDoc As SolidEdgePart.PartDocument
    Dim objBody As SolidEdgeGeometry.Body
    Dim objCone As SolidEdgeGeometry.Cone
    Dim sStatus As String
    Dim dblCnHfAngle As Double
    ' Report errors
    Const PI = 3.14159265358979
    ' Create/get the application with specific settings
    On Error Resume Next
    Set objApp = GetObject(, "SolidEdge.Application")
    If Err Then
        Err.Clear
        Set objApp = CreateObject("SolidEdge.Application")
        Set objDoc = objApp.Documents.Add("SolidEdge.PartDocument")
        objApp.Visible = True
    Else
        Set objDoc = objApp.ActiveDocument
    End If
    ' Create a model (cone)
    sStatus = CreateModel(objDoc:=objDoc)
    If sStatus <> "" Then
        MsgBox sStatus
        Exit Sub
    End If
    ' Getting the HalfAngle property of the Cone object
    Set objBody = objDoc.Models(1).Body
    Set objCone = objBody.Shells(1).Faces(2).Geometry
    dblCnHfAngle = objCone.HalfAngle
    ' USER DISPLAY
    ' Release objects
    Set objApp = Nothing
    Set objDoc = Nothing
