another traversal question - getactiveconfigurationname
well, here is my latest hangup. i am again traversing an assembly. while traversing, i would like to pull the "in use" configuration name. i don't care about the name of the configuration that was active when the document was closed. i care about what it is now. i have multiple parts in my assembly called "float". "float" has 2 configurations, 3" and 6". i am only able to pull the configuration name that was active when the document was closed. do i need to open the part and then grab the configuration name? how do you guys deal with this?
here is how i am pulling the info:
(swapp.getactiveconfigurationname(swchildcomp.getpathname))
again, any help is appreciated.
thanks in advance!

configname = swchildcomp.referencedconfiguration should return the name of of the configuration that that instance of the component is in.

answer swchildcomp.referencedconfiguration did the trick.
thanks wayne.
