    Yes, It is possible also without SolidWorks. There is a library:
    SolidWorks Document Manager API that make it possible. This is a
    library that all PDM systems uses to manage SolidWorks files.

    ListOfFiles = SwDMDocument5.GetAllExternalReferences2 (
    pSrcOption, brokenRefVar)

    Input: (ISwDMSearchOption) pSrcOption Pointer to the
    SwDMSearchOption object

    Output: (VARIANT) brokenRefVar VARIANT of
    type SafeArray of the statuses of the any broken external references as
    defined in swDmReferenceStatus (see Remarks)

    Output: (VARIANT) ListOfFiles VARIANT of
    type SafeArray of the names of the external references used in this
    document

    Philippe,

    The one thing this lacks is the ability to figure out which
    configuration of the reference is being used. But it was a big help.
