API - Deleting model dimensions from drawing

I'm working on a project in which I:

- Import model items into a view (I'm mostly after dimensions)

- Scan though the dimensions that were imported and delete
some dimensions based on their prefix.

The part I am having trouble with is deleting dimensions. I'm trying
to use SelectByID like this:

MyDim = MyDispDim.GetDimension
swDrawing.ActivateView(MyView.Name)
swDrawing.SelectByID(MyDim.FullName, "DIMENSION",
0, 0, 0)

swdrawing.EditDelete()

But it doesn't work. I don't get the full name. For example, if the
full name is:

"Outer Land@Sketch1@DrawingTemplate1-SectionPart-1-1@Drawing View3"

I get a value of :

"Outer Land@Sketch1@SB025AZ0_Outer.Part"

So the dimension is not selected.

Does anyone know how to the correct name, or are there any other ideas
out there for deleting these dimensions?

Thanks.

I found a solution, but for anyone else out there wondering:...
(From SW API Support - this works)

Since you already have the DisplayDimension, please realize that this
"is-a" Annotation.
You can access the Annotation, calling:

DisplayDimension::GetAnnotation


and the Annotation interface comes with a method:

Annoation::Select3


You can call this directly, without the need for
ModelDocExtension::SelectByID2().

Once you have selected the dimension, call:

ModelDoc:eleteSelection


to delete them in 1 go.

 

It would seem you could modify the code in:
Get Assembly Component From Selected Entity Example (VB)
to do what you want also.
