About Document Type and Class

Hi All,

Is there any way to get the class of a document automatically which i am trying to import into worksite, like we can get document type automatically by using

session.PreferredDatabase.GetDocumentTypeFromPath(DocPath)

docpath is the path of document in my local PC which i need to import.
Plz reply asap.

Thanks

The document type is the document application type; thus the GetDocumentTypeFromPath Method gets the application type by detecting the file extension type.

The document class, however, can be assigned to any type of documents. For instance, a MIME type file can have an E-Mail class, but also can have a DOC class, MEMO class, or any other predefined class. So, it would be difficult to have a method to return a specific class for a given file. At least, not based on its file extension or any other file attributes.

You may use the SearchDocumentClasses Method to find a specific or all classes available off of a database. But, it's up to you to pick a class to profile with the document.
