How can I get the FileDescriptor from ActiveDocument?

[Anonymous]

It seems I can only get the File object, can I cast it somehow?

What's the meaning of "FileDescriptor"?  does it means file properties?

if so, you can try to get it from ActiveDocument.PropertySets

for example, the Titile of the file is : ActiveDocument.PropertySets.item(1).item(1)

Thanks

According to the programming help "

The FileDescriptor object represents a reference to an Autodesk Inventor file or a foreign file."

I am writing an app that parses the document tree for the active document i.e. looping through all referencedfiledescriptors for all children recurisively. I would like to get hold of the filedescriptor for the root node to be able to use the same wrapper class for the active document and all its children. I tried your suggestion but did not find a filedescriptor in the propertysets properties.

I don't think you can get a FileDescriptor for the top-level document.  The FileDescriptor is used for referenced files.  The top-level document is the root, and no other document references it.
