LAPI ListObjects Method with VB

Albert_Boswell

Re: how to list and examine folder contents.

I am getting an object list with LL_ListObjects. The list length = 11 which is correct for the root folder.

Then I read the list using LL_ListGetValue.

Then I attempt to read a record attribute using LL_AssocGetString which returns a -214... error.

The more I look at these method names - I think they are not correct for my process.

My Objective is to list and read the objects(folders) in a folder to determine if a folder already exists.

Once in a folder, upload a document after determining that it doesn't already exist by name.

Thanks in advance - Bert

Found this to work - as suspected, I was using the wrong methods.

The Developer reference I had did not have the LL_TableGetValue method listed.

Dim Status As Long
Dim FolderList As Long
Dim length As Long

Status = LL_ValueAlloc(FolderList)

Status = LL_ListObjects(sessionID, -2000, 2000, vbNullString, " subtype=0 ", PERM_FULL, FolderList)

Status = LL_ValueGetLength(FolderList, length)
Dim i As Integer
Dim FolderTemp As Long
Dim ObjName As String * 256
Dim ObjNameLength As Long

Status = LL_ValueAlloc(FolderTemp)
Status = LL_ValueAlloc(ObjNameLength)

For i = 0 To length - 1
    Debug.Print LL_TableGetValue(FolderList, i, "Name", FolderTemp)
    MsgBox "Getting List Value"
    Debug.Print LL_ValueGetString(FolderTemp, ObjName, 256, ObjNameLength)
    MsgBox "Get String Value"
    MsgBox Left(ObjName, ObjNameLength)
