    Default Get SSM Custom Property Via LISP

    I'm not finding any helpful information on this topic.

    Is is possible to query a custom property of the SSM, provided you know the property name you seek?

    I know the SSM file (.DST) is a separate file from the drawings themselves. Does ActiveX provide a means by which to "read" the .DST file properties, as it is technically an opened file within AutoCAD?

    The SSM file name doesn't appear in this list:
    Code:
    (vlax-for each (vla-get-documents (vlax-get-acad-object))
      (setq docList (cons (vla-get-name each) docList)))
    I'm automating some of our "revision" processes, and was on a role until I encountered this issue. I'm hoping it's more of a speedbump, than a roadblock.

    If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it!

    I have not found a way to connect with the SSM via AutoLISP / VisualLISP. You will need to use .NET or another language to accomplish this.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    You are correct, there is no way to connect to SSM via Visual LISP.

    That is unfortunate, but at least I know it is possible.

    I presently do not have access to Visual Studio, and the ObjectARX SDK at work (only at home), and am lacking the production environment at home to properly develop anything useful.

    I Beta test Autodesk at home (on my MacBook), but it's not the same as my setup at work.
