Recognize if a derived part link has been broken.

[shastu]

I have some vba code that looks at an IPT file and checks if it came from a derived part of iam file.  So in other words if oSubs1.Count = 1 then it is from a derived part or assembly and then if that is the case things are handled differently than if it just a regular part.  However, if it is a derived assembly or part that the link has been broken, then I want it to use the same logic as if it was just a regular part and not a derived part.  Unfortunately, even though the link was broke, the oSubs1.Count is still = 1.  Is there anything I can use to recognize that the link has been broke?

Thanks,

Shawn

Have a look at this:

DerivedFutureAssemblyComponent.SuppressLinkToFile Property

It also exists in:

DerivedAssemblyComponent.SuppressLinkToFile Property

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.  I think what will work for my application is the below:

    For Each derived_assy In part_doc.ComponentDefinition.ReferenceComponents.DerivedAssemblyComponents
        If derived_assy.LinkedToFile Then
