Get Design Table Example (C#)

This example shows how to get a design table and its contents.

//---------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Open a part or assembly document that
//    contains a design table.
// 2. Verify that a design table exists by
//    expanding Tables in the ConfigurationManager.
// 3. Open the Immediate window.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. Prints the design table contents to the
//    Immediate window.
// 2. Examine the Immediate window.
