Active Document Filename and Path access in VB

Active Document Filename and Path access in VB

(OP)
I am working with SolidWorks 2006 and have a macro/vb app that I am trying to get the filename and path for the active document.  Is this possible, and if so, how?  Please, any help will be much appreciated.

RE: Active Document Filename and Path access in VB

Use "SldWorks.ActiveDoc" to get the active document.

Use "ModelDoc.GetPathName" to get the document's path.

I knew it had to be simple, but dang if I could find it.

Thanks
