Ilogic check iProperty of opened file

[Anonymous]

Hi!

Trying to check/Change iProperty of a file that has been opened by iLogic,

But the only value I get is the value from the file when the rule was launched.

I guess there is some secret-refering-stuff I dont understand 🙂

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

FileToCheck = "C:\Vault\1782-906-R00.idw"

ThisDoc.Launch(FileToCheck)

RevOfFile = iProperties.Value("Project", "Revision Number")

MessageBox.Show(RevOfFile, "Title")

ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.Close(True)

Try:

oDoc = ThisDoc.Launch

oProp = oDoc.PropertySets.Item("Design Tracking Properties").Item("Part Number").Value

MsgBox(oProp)

Super!
I believe I kind of getting it now:)

Got it to work with:

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

FileToCheck = "C:\Vault\1782-906-R00.idw"

ThisDoc.Launch(FileToCheck)

    ' Get the active document. 
    Dim oDoc As Document 
   oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument 

'oDoc = ThisDoc.Document'(FileToCheck)

oProp = oDoc.PropertySets.Item("Design Tracking Properties").Item("Part Number").Value

'iLogicVb.RunExternalRule("Test show partnumber")

MsgBox(oProp)
     
ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.Close(True)
