API: GetMassProperties2...???

    Hi,

    I've noticed some irratic behaviour from the 'retval =
    SldWorks.GetMassProperties2 ( filePathName, configurationName,
    Accuracy )' -function...

    the function should return a safe Array of massproperties for the specified
    file&configuration but sometimes it will return an Empty array instead. It
    seems like the API-call only works if I've done a 'Mass Property'-analysis
    the old fashion way first (manually by selecting Tools/Mass Properties from
    the drop-down menu).... Why is that. Are there some pre-conditions that I
    should be aware of that aren't described in the API-help section?

    Also if I modify the part (adding configurations etc...) it seems like I'd
    need to manually check the mass properties (for each configuration
    separately) before I successfully can use the API call again...

    Any ideas...

    TIA, KimSky
