Topic: Getring custom "Name" of a AcSmCustomPropertyValue

[pBe]

I have this code that writes the Custom Property Value of the entire sheet set. What i'm trying to achieve is not just retrieve all custom values BUT it should meet a certain condition. That's where the custom name comes into play,

The names of the custom properties are:

"Property 1"
"Property 2"
"Property 3"

So, only if the "name" is any of the above, then give me the value. Having a hard time figuring out where Sheet set database keeps this value, and on top of that , i also need to know the file sheet name where those property values belongs to,

Ground Floor.
Property 1 =  15A
Property 2 =  892
Property 3 =  Room 1

Here's the code
