Anything you can do from VBA can be done from Python, and it's usually a 
one-for-one translation.  Somewhere in the SolidWorks object model 
documentation, there has to be a command to run a named VBA script.  
That's what you need to find.  The key is that this is not Python 
related.  You're just controlling their COM server, so you need to find 
the right method in the right interface in their object model.
