Hello,

Hello Alan,
Would GetUpdateStamp() on CATISpecObject what you need?
Go through all the parts. Cast them to CATISpecObject and try GetUpdateStamp().
I'm not giving more detail as this is CAA and I don't know if you asking in CAA or Automation?

One workaround:
From CAA --> Call CATScriptUtilities::ExecuteScript(Launcher.catvbs)
and from Launcher.catvbs call -> CATIA.SystemService.ExecuteBackgroundProcessus(Automation.exe)
Then it come back to CAA and when the CAA command finish, the Automation.exe start.
The down side is no error...

The real question was how to know if the user selected the Part itself or the Document under the part.
The following function will return an object on the Document, whatever the selection made by the user.

Thank you LWolf!
Why do I suck so much at this!
I tried to feed the selection1.Add with PartDocument, ProductDocument, Document... Nothing was working.

New question, new thread...

Hello Tesak,
I need your help again.

By the way Tesak, I LOVED the post you provide for Product reordering in CATIA V5 VBA.

Hello,
I would like to know if the user selected the Part or the Product.
To go around the problem, I cast the object into a Part and if it’s fail I suppose I’m on the Product and I cast to the Product.
I would prefer to find what object I’m on before casting it.
Thank you,
Vincent...
Hello Tesak,

But I don't get theses dll. Would you know how they get built...
