Referencing custom iProperties created by Frame Generator

[Raider_71]

Hi I am having difficulty referencing the Custom iProperties created by Frame Generator. I have written a small VB.net application to extract the custom iPorpoeties and it works for normal custom props but just not the ones created by F generator. I am trying to extract the values of CUTDETAIL1 and CUTDETAIL2 but when I try and reference them by name it does not work. If I run a For Each loop then I can see the name for these properties are in fact not as presented in the iProperties dialogue but something completely different.

CUTDETAIL1 was presented as something like "B67C9A1B-478A-9058-CRG34J6LD7B" for instance.

For each part I have checked it looks like CUTDETAIL1 and CUTDETAIL2 are presented by a unique number like the one above.

Please see sample part attached.

How can I pick up the value of these types of parameters?

Thanks!

Found:

    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        If oApp.Documents.Count < 1 Then
            Exit Sub
        End If

        Dim oDoc As Inventor.Document = oApp.ActiveDocument

        Dim oCustomiProps As Inventor.PropertySet = oDoc.PropertySets.Item("{D5CDD505-2E9C-101B-9397-08002B2CF9AE}")

        For Each oCustProp As Inventor.Property In oCustomiProps

            'MessageBox.Show(oCustProp.PropId & ":" & oCustProp.Value.ToString & vbCrLf & oCustProp.Name & ":" & oCustProp.Value.ToString)

            MessageBox.Show(oCustProp.DisplayName & " :  " & oCustProp.Value.ToString)

        Next


    End Sub
