Can anyone help with a neat macro?

    I've been creating/modifying a macro for excel to help with
    stability/trim calculations for a submarine (actually an ROV), but I'm
    stuck and need a bit of help.

    I need a spreadsheet that is able to pull mass properties out of an
    assembly so that I can track the cg, vol, and mass of parts and
    sub-assemblies relative to the major assembly's origin. What I have
    currently pulls out the vol and mass of parts (which is good), but
    then outputs the cg relative to the part's origin.

    Is anyone out there interested in taking a peek at the macro used, and
    seeing if they can add/modify it a bit to output cg's relative to the
    assembly's origin? I'm pretty certain I need to use the transform2
    call, but not sure how to do it. (I will of course post the macro for
    everyone to use if we can get something working!)

    Thanks a lot,
    Scott
