I am working in VBA to automate the creation of Cogo Points for Pipe Network Structures in Civil 3D 2015, where the user selects the structures on screen, then the points are created, and a cut sheet is generated in Excel that has the RIM elevation, and cycles through the connected pipes to provide the invert elevations. In Civil 3D the Cardinal Direction can be added to a structure label style using "<[Connected Pipe Direction(CP)]>". Can I obtain this information in VBA/VB.NET code? I have a reference to the Structure itself, as well as each of the connected pipes, I just can't seem to determine how to access this property (if it exists).
Also, right now I output the pipe invert elevations to excel in the order of their index:
For k = 0 To oStructure.Connectors.Count - 1
If (TypeOf oStructure.Connectors.Item(k).NetworkPart Is IAeccPipe) Then
Set oPipe = oStructure.Connectors.Item(k).NetworkPart
Call EnterPipeInverts(sheetStructures, oStructure.IsConnectedPipeFlowingIn(k), oPipe, iRowStructures)
End If
Next k
but I would prefer to sort the connected pipe inverts from highest to lowest, so the IE Out is the last output. Is there a strait forward means to achieve this?
Thank you,
Mike Killion
