Getting All Object Types and Whether it is a container

Chip_Beaulieu_(beauliec_-_(deleted))

In LAPI, for each object I point to in Livelink, I want to know:1. Is the object a container object (e.g. Folder, Project..)2. What is the icon used for the project.Does anyone know how to get this info from LAPI? I could hard code it, but that is not a great solution.

I would also like to know about how to get the Icon for a specific file type from Livelink ...In Visual Basic I can answer the first one ... although after six months you may already have an answer:1. Is the object a container object?Once you have a list of objects from LL_ListObjects you can get the type of each object by calling LL_TableGetInteger(, , "SubType", ). You can compare the value to the LL constants defined in the lapi_documents.bas file.Here is a routine that will return the SubType in a string:Public Function GetLLObjectType(ByVal LLType As Long) As String Select Case LLType Case LL_FOLDERSUBTYPE, LL_STANDARDSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Folder" Case LL_DOCUMENTSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Document" Case LL_WORKFLOWMAPSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Workflow Map" Case LL_QUERYSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Query" Case LL_COMPOUNDDOCUMENTSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Compound Document" Case LL_URLSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "URL" Case LL_PROJECTSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Project" Case LL_DISCUSSIONSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Discussion" Case LL_TOPICSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Topic" Case LL_REPLYSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Reply" Case LL_CHANNELSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Channel" Case LL_NEWSSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "News" Case LL_TASKSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Task" Case LL_TASKLISTSUBTYPE: GetLLObjectType = "Task List" Case Else: GetLLObjectType = "" End SelectEnd Function
