catscript errors

[catia_user]

Hi
I am attempting to read the nodes and subnodes of a .catproduct , i can read the nodes with catscript code and also check the the type with "TypeName"
But even through the top node is .catproduct and subnodes some are asm and some are .catpart , when i check the typename everything is returining "Product" as type ?

Yes, there is only "Product" type for Product in CATIA Automation objects.

Hello @catia_user,

what method are you using to perform this extract? Are you writing to an excel file or writing to a text file?

Although I have limited knowledge with respect to CATIA but I'll advice you use "myDocument.FullName" to get the full path of the referenced file afterwhich you can post process by stripping to get the actual file type.

I don't know if there is a better approach that the above is what I've used so far.

You really need to post your code. Are you checking the instance? Because that IS a product. Or are you selecting the .catpart (it has only one cog-wheel as icon), one level below the instance.
