how to check to see if part is mirrored
hi,
i wrote a program in vb6 and it checks to see if the part is mirrored or not, but it crashes in older version of sw than 2008 because i used the ismirrored function to check if the part is mirrored or not. and that function was only made available in 2008.
is there another way to check if the part is mirrored ?
i tried looping through all the features of the part but when it comes to the mirrored part it does not list a mirrored feature. so i am kinda stuck.
any help thanks.

if swmirrorfeature.gettypename = "mirrorstock" then
retval = true
else
retval = false
end if
