Sub Example_AppendOuterLoop()
    ' This example creates an associative hatch in model space, and then creates an outer loop for the hatch.

    Dim patternName As String
    Dim PatternType As Long

    PatternType = 0

    ' Create the associative Hatch object
    Set hatchObj = ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.AddHatch(PatternType, patternName, bAssociativity)

    ' An arc and a line are used to create a closed loop.

    Dim startAngle As Double
    Dim endAngle As Double
