Get Loaded Sheets Example (C#)

This example shows how to determine which sheets in a drawing are loaded.

//----------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Click File > Open.
// 2. Browse to public_documents\samples\tutorial\advdrawings.
// 3. Select foodprocessor.slddrw.
// 4. Click Select sheets to open > Selected > Sheet1* (Load) > OK > Open.
// 5. Open the Immediate window.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. Loads Sheet1 only.
// 2. Mouse over the Sheet2, Sheet3, and Sheet4 tabs and
//    examine the Immediate window to verify step 1.
//
// NOTE: Because this drawing is used elsewhere, do not save
// changes.
