set swmodeltemp = swapp.opendoc(compname, swdocpart)
hi,
i was using "set swmodeltemp = swapp.activatedoc2(compname, false, nerrors)" to open my part and do what ever i wanted but now i figured out that i could use "set swmodeltemp = swapp.opendoc(compname, swdocpart)" and still get the handle and do what ever i want with the part.
so my questions are: do i need to close the part if using the second method after i am done with it ? if i do, how would i do that ? as it is not actually open.

set swmodeltemp = swapp.opendoc(compname, swdocpart)
swapp.closedoc(swmodeltemp.getpathname())
but may i suggest you use the much more up to date functions such as swapp.opendoc6 or 7 as they aren't deprecated.
hi luke,
thanks for the reply.
i tried that and it does not work, i get an error message "object variable not set". see the wierd thing here is set swmodeltemp = swapp.opendoc(compname, swdocpart) is suppose to actually open the part in its own window i think, then the code you supplied me with would work.
i don't want to open the part in its own window so this is working good for me, but being that i am calling an opendoc i wondered if i needed to close it.
i tried useing the same line of code in another program but there it just opens the part in it's own window which is not what i am after.
what is the proper way to get the handle on a specific part without opening it ?

answer to get a pointer/handle you need to open the document. you open it using opendoc6 and set the visible property after to false.
thanks luke,
that works great
