You may want to construct a VBA macro to perform various operations within your Rational Rhapsody model.
During the development of the VBA macro, you will need to know the metaclass of certain Rhapsody elements.
An easy way to determine the metaclass of an element is to construct the following macro within VBA.

Sub test()Dim elem As RPModelElement
Set elem = getSelectedElement()
End Sub
Set a Breakpoint on the "Set elem = getSelectedElement()" line and then Run the macro.
In the output listed within the VBA Module, expand the 'elem' Expression and the metaclass information will be listed.
