Retrieving Attribute values using LAPI

I need to read the datavalues for ceratin attributes in a custom category and display them in my program.I use LL_LL_FetchCategoryVersion to get the category version and then use LL_AttrGetValues to get the datavalues for a specific attribute. I don't get any error here, but when I use LL_ListGetString to read the value in the return parameter - AttrValues. I get an error.Could anyone please help?Thanks in advance.

Message from Sathya Saravanan via eLinkThe listgetstring will return an error if the attribute is empty and doesnot contain any values. if you are looking to read values of categoriesalready assigned to object, use getobjectattributesex instead.------------------------------T.Sathya Saravanan.Senior Integration Consultant,OpenText Middle East,Dubai.

Thanks for your suggession. But I still get the same error even when the attribute i am getting the value for (using ll_AttrGetValues) does have a value. I observed that when I get the category identifier using ll_listObjectCategoryIds , the version in the Assoc returned was 4. This is the CatId I send to ll_Fetchcategoryversion. Should i be specifying 0 ? Could anybody help me with some sample code here?Thank you
